Description

This preliminary market engagement process precedes the retender of the Cashless Payment System Framework which went live in 2022. This process will allow CPC to consider the changes enacted under the Procurement Act 2023 and how we may use that legislation to design a route to market which is modern and market relevant.

No lots have been included within this notice as the structure will be determined through this preliminary market engagement process. Framework length and dates have also not been decided upon at this time. Please see the attached document "Preliminary Market Engagement Electronic Payment Methods" for more information.
