UK-Shrewsbury: banking services
BMC 001 - Management & Administration of the Shropshire Council (and potentially Staffordshire County Council and Worcestershire County Council) Business Loans to Small & Medium Enterprises. The Council is looking for an organisation to manage and administer Shropshire Council funding of £500,000 for up to a 4-year period for the provision of loans to small and medium sized enterprises (SMEs), including micro businesses, located within the local authority area of Shropshire. The contract could be extended through the provision of additional funding such as ERDF and additional geographic coverage into Worcestershire and Staffordshire during the contract period. In this case the relevant sponsoring organisation for the area covered (Shropshire, Staffordshire or Worcestershire County Council) may have additional requirements in relation to the type and coverage of loans in their areas. The loans are to help in the creation of new SMEs and improve the performance of existing SMEs. For loans that are awarded in Shropshire, there is a requirement for the contractor to match the Shropshire Council funding 50:50 on each loan awarded. Please note this contract is also to be available to Staffordshire County Council (SCC) and Worcestershire County Council (WCC) to utilise without further completion if they so decide and at their absolute discretion if they wish to create their own Loan Fund. The individual sponsoring organisation may have their own requirements in terms of match funding. An extension to the contract, or the application of the contract by SCC and WCC could involve the use of European Regional Development Fund (ERDF) funding. The potential total value of the extensions including the use of the contract by SCC and WCC would be 5 000 000 GBP, comprising 2 500 000 GBP ERDF funding and 2 500 000 GBP public funding. An announcement is due in August 2012 as to whether the ERDF funding application is successful. Loans will be provided of between 5 000 GBP and 50 000 GBP to SMEs that have been unable to gain finance from 'high street' loan providers. The loans will generally be available to SMEs for working capital, bridging, property and equipment purchases, start-up capital and business purchases (not including management buy outs or similar). If ERDF funding is used to extend the project there are specific exclusions relating to the type of business that can be supported and the nature of what the loan can spent on. For example, where ERDF is used the loan must be used for development or expansion of the business only and not working capital. There are also mandatory monitoring and reporting requirements for ERDF funding and further information can be found in the tender document. CPV: 66110000. ...
