The Department of Transport (DfT) on behalf of the Euston Delivery Company (EDC) (“Buyer”) is looking to appoint a pension provider for the provision of a pension scheme. The EDC is a new government-owned organisation so is not part of the civil service and is not covered by the current civil service pension arrangements. The service required is as follows: • Provision of a qualifying workplace pension scheme for a new government-owned company. • The pension scheme will be established for a maximum expected workforce of 60 EDC employees, who will be eligible to join the EDC pension scheme. EDC employees will be onboarded incrementally, with the first employees expected to commence employment from September 2026 onwards. • The pension scheme is required to be in place within 3 months from September 2026. • Terms are being requested based on an initial three-year pension scheme length, with an option, at the Buyer’s sole discretion, to extend the Contract for up to an additional two years, exercisable in one-year increments (1+1). • Both a Master Trust and Contract based solution will be considered. It is anticipated that, once the EDC is fully operational, the average annual salary will be approximately £80,000.00. Employer contributions are anticipated to range between 10%-12% and employee contributions are anticipated to range from 3%-6% of pensionable salary. As the organisation is newly established, the average salary is an estimate based on the expected roles required by the EDC and the company’s remuneration strategy which will follow public sector guidelines and professional pay benchmarking. This figure is therefore provided for indicative purposes only and should not be relied upon as a guaranteed or definitive salary level. The DfT is procuring the Services under this Contract. It is anticipated that, following contract award, responsibility for the Contract will be transferred from DfT to the EDC. The Contract will be novated to the EDC on terms to be agreed with the successful Tenderer (“Supplier”), at which point the EDC shall assume all rights, obligations and liabilities under the Contract from the effective date of novation.
