Summary of the contracting process

Ipswich Borough Council has successfully completed a procurement process for relocation services, awarded to Restore Harrow Green, a large supplier based in London. This procurement was conducted via an open method below the threshold, ensuring a competitive process. Key dates included the tender submission deadline on 1 December 2025 and the clarification period which ended on 17 November 2025. The procurement falls within the services category, specifically targeting relocation services, and operations will be based in the Ipswich region. The contract is active from 12 April 2026, extending until 28 February 2029, with a potential renewal for additional years, rendering it an attractive long-term opportunity.

This tender presents substantial business growth opportunities, primarily for companies specialising in transport, cargo handling, and relocation services. Firms that can offer high-quality solutions at competitive prices could significantly benefit, given the contract's value of £109,125.00 and potential renewal options. The focus on both price and quality in award criteria (40% price, 60% quality) suggests that businesses excelling in providing superior service delivery while maintaining cost-effectiveness would be particularly well-suited to this opportunity. Companies looking to expand their regional footprint and establish long-term relationships with public authorities will find this contract particularly advantageous.
