Summary
Machine-generated summaryDerby City Council (DCC) is procuring the services of a DBS umbrella registered body to support its disclosure and barring checks. The provider will supply an electronic administration platform, an E-Bulk System, for submitting DBS application forms and for making check results visible to users within DCC. The Council carries out DBS checks on employees in designated posts, plus checks for carers, fostering, adoption, taxi drivers, volunteers and maintained schools, and rechecks employees every five years. Around 5,000 DBS applications are expected per year, though volumes may fluctuate due to organisational change, renewals and national changes to eligibility criteria, with applications not spread uniformly over time.
