Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

BIP SOLUTIONS LIMITED procured accommodation and decant managed services, with the requirement classified as hotel accommodation services. The work concerns arranging and managing accommodation and related decant activity, supporting people who need to move from their usual accommodation into alternative hotel or other suitable accommodation. Delivery is in the North West of England, with the buying organisation based in Liverpool. The procurement is for services rather than goods or construction works. It is particularly relevant to organisations that provide managed accommodation solutions, arrange hotel stays across the North West, or coordinate decant and relocation requirements for a public-sector buyer. The requirement also indicates that voluntary, community and social enterprises are a suitable supplier type, while small and medium-sized enterprises are not identified as suitable for this procurement.

The procurement is complete and was awarded on 7 August 2026 following a tender process. The submission deadline was 7 August 2026. Its estimated value was £70,000. The contract runs from 8 August 2026 to 7 August 2028. The procurement method was recorded as “Other”, with further details not disclosed, and the evaluation basis was not published in the available process information. Insurance Claims Accommodation Bureau ICAB was awarded the contract at £70,000 for the full accommodation and decant managed services requirement. The award is active. The opportunity was not divided into separate lots, so the requirement and award relate to one service package. The published suitability information identifies voluntary, community and social enterprises as suitable and SMEs as unsuitable.

This award shows that BIP SOLUTIONS LIMITED has a defined requirement for a managed accommodation and decant provider in the North West. A credible competitor for a future requirement would need to arrange hotel accommodation reliably, manage placements and changes, and coordinate decant activity for people moving into temporary or alternative accommodation. Useful commercial capability would include a dependable network of hotels or other accommodation providers, strong booking and case-management processes, responsive handling of urgent moves, and the capacity to manage service delivery across the region. The selected supplier is recorded as a large organisation, indicating that the buyer accepted a provider with substantial organisational capacity. Voluntary, community and social enterprises are identified as suitable supplier types, which may support organisations combining accommodation management with community-focused relocation or support services.
