Description

Bournemouth, Christchurch and Poole (BCP) Council requires a supplier for the Provision of Banking Services as outlined in the procurement documentation.

The scope of the contract is for a Supplier to deliver Banking Services for BCP Council, the companies it operates, and the Charter Trustee organisations the Council hosts (including maintained schools and nurseries). The Council currently requires Banking Services to be delivered for the below organisations but this could be subject to change (both additional bank accounts and a reduction in bank accounts) during the term of the contract:

• Bournemouth Christchurch and Poole Council (BCP Council) - Town Hall, Bourne Avenue, Bournemouth BH2 6DY
• Poole Housing Partnership Limited (Company Number 05025994) - Beech House, 28-30 Wimborne Road, Poole BH15 2BU
• Seascape Group Limited (Company Number 08743462) - Town Hall, Bourne Avenue, Bournemouth BH2 6DY
• Seascape South Limited (Company Number 09364688) - Town Hall, Bourne Avenue, Bournemouth BH2 6DY
• Bournemouth Building & Maintenance Limited (Company Number 08737094) - Town Hall, Bourne Avenue, Bournemouth BH2 6DY
• Seascape Homes and Property Limited (Company Number 10030233) - Town Hall, Bourne Avenue, Bournemouth BH2 6DY
• M.D Care (UK) Limited (Company Number 07405656) - Town Hall, Bourne Avenue, Bournemouth BH2 6DY
• The Charter Trustees for Bournemouth - Town Hall, Bourne Avenue, Bournemouth BH2 6DY
• The Charter Trustees for Poole - Civic Centre, Poole BH15 2RU
• 19 Schools and Nurseries

The length of the contract will be five years with the option to extend for a further five years (5+5).

The intended start date of the contract will be on 1 October 2021. This is to allow sufficient lead time for the start of the financial year commencing on 1 April 2022. The initial five year term will commence from 1 April 2022.

As the Council is a newly formed unitary authority there will be changes during the life of the contract while there is migration of the three legacy councils' internal accounting systems and processes. The Council requires a supplier that can deliver Banking Services flexibly during the term of the delivery in order to support in the transformation being undertaken at the Council.

The Council currently has a variety of bank accounts to deliver its services, which stems from the three legacy councils. As the Council goes through this transformation process, its requirements will change and the supplier must be flexible and innovative to help the Council to continue to deliver its services.
