Summary of the contracting process

The Home Office, located at 2 Marsham Street, London, has completed a procurement process for "Support Payment Card" services, targeting asylum seekers. This tender falls under the "Financial information systems" industry category, with an award value of £16,000,000 GBP. The procurement was conducted through a selective method, specifically a call-off from a framework agreement. The contractual period commenced on 27 February 2021 and concluded on 26 February 2024. Delivery locations encompass a broad range, including the United Kingdom and numerous international regions such as the Channel Islands, Isle of Man, Europe, and British Overseas Territories. This tender has reached the ‘Award’ stage, with the award being dated 24 May 2020 and published on 21 May 2025.

This procurement presents substantial business growth opportunities, particularly for large-scale enterprises specialising in financial information systems and support payment services. While the procurement method indicates a selective approach suitable for pre-qualified suppliers, businesses equipped to manage international delivery and complex financial solutions are well-positioned to engage with similar future opportunities. Although this specific tender was not targeted towards SMEs or voluntary, community, and social enterprises, organisations with capabilities in managing government contracts and asylum seeker services might find potential in upcoming tender frameworks or related contract opportunities.
