Summary of the contracting process

The Home Office is planning a tender for the Haslar Immigration Removal Centre (IRC) Operator Service PIN with an initial capacity of 130 detainees, expanding to 600 upon completion of ongoing refurbishment and construction works. The procurement process, currently in the planning stage, targets multiple services including site management, security, welfare care, and facilities management. Located in the South East of the United Kingdom, the estimated contract value is £110 million excluding VAT for Phase 1, with a potential extension covering an additional 470 beds. The contract period begins on 12 October 2026 and could last up to six years, with a core term of four years and an option to extend by another two years. Interested parties must register on the Home Office eSourcing Suite by 16 June 2025.

This tender offers significant business growth opportunities for organisations skilled in security, facilities management, and welfare services, particularly those experienced in catering to detained individuals. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) are encouraged to participate, as the procurement process under Regulation 74 of the Public Contracts Regulations 2015 allows for diverse service provision. Businesses adept in logistics, educational services, and cleaning and accommodation services will find this tender particularly advantageous. By aligning with a substantial government project, qualified businesses can enhance their portfolios and build long-term relationships within the public sector.
