Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The Cabinet Office procured corporate travel agency services under Lot 1, replacing an existing contract. The requirement covers online and offline travel booking services for the organisation’s travel needs, classified as travel services (CPV 63515000). Delivery is across the United Kingdom. The work is a service rather than goods or construction, and is intended for a corporate travel management provider able to handle both digital bookings and bookings made through offline channels. The requirement relates specifically to the Cabinet Office, so relevant suppliers are those able to support UK-wide public-sector business travel arrangements at organisational scale. The procurement forms part of the Cabinet Office’s ongoing corporate travel provision and was structured as a single travel-services lot.

This procurement has been completed and awarded through a selective call-off from a framework agreement. The contract was awarded to CORPORATE TRAVEL MANAGEMENT (NORTH) LIMITED on 1 September 2026. The awarded value is £15,000,000. The contract period runs from 1 September 2026 to 31 August 2027. The tender submission deadline was 27 August 2026. The tender’s estimated value was also £15,000,000. The selected supplier is recorded as active, and the requirement was treated as unsuitable for small and medium-sized enterprises and voluntary, community or social enterprise organisations. The outcome concerns Lot 1 only; no additional lot or supplier awards are recorded in this process.

For a supplier that did not win, this award indicates demand for a substantial, dedicated corporate travel booking service supporting a central government department across the United Kingdom. A credible competitor for a future requirement would need to provide reliable online booking technology alongside effective offline booking support, with the operational capacity to manage travel requests at large organisational scale. Experience delivering corporate travel management, resilient customer service and consistent handling of varied booking channels would be important. The route used here also shows that access to a suitable framework agreement and the ability to compete through a selective call-off can be commercially significant. The requirement is not aimed at small or medium-sized enterprises or voluntary, community or social enterprise organisations, so larger established travel-management providers are the closest comparator.
