This contract aims to support Afghan evacuees who arrived in the UK as part of a government scheme, with crucial interpreting services in Dari and Pashto. The procurement method used was a single tender action due to its urgent nature, with a total contract value of £402,028.30. The contract period commenced on 5 July 2021 and will conclude on 30 September 2021, with the award announcement dated 5 July 2021 and published on 23 November 2021.

This tender represents a significant opportunity for businesses specialising in translation and support services, particularly those experienced in working with vulnerable populations. Companies that are adept at providing multilingual support, logistical arrangements, and cultural integration services would be highly suitable to compete. The urgent nature of the requirements also suggests a potential for agile service providers capable of mobilising quickly to address the needs of new arrivals under the Afghan Relocations and Assistance Policy.

Notice Information

Notice Title

Afghan Dial-In and Support Service

Notice Description

The Afghan ex-gratia scheme originated in 2014 to provide funding to support resettled Afghan staff locally engaged by the British Armed Forces and the UK Government in Afghanistan. The Afghan Relocations and Assistance Policy went live on 1 April 2021 and provides similar support but to a wider range of staff. Local authorities are due to provide an initial package of support and assistance to those arriving under the scheme to help them adjust to life in the UK. However, the first arrivals will land in the UK on 22 June 2021 and will be placed in hotels under COVID quarantine protocols. Managed Quarantine Hotel Support for the arrivals is urgently needed for interpreting (Dari and Pashto), enquiries and signposting for the families arriving.
