Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process undertaken by ORBIT GROUP LIMITED, a regional or local authority based in Coventry, United Kingdom, seeks a Bond Treasury Advisor to provide strategic support for a potential bond issuance under their EMTN Programme. This tender falls within the financial and insurance services industry category, and covers regions UKC to UKK. The process was in the award stage and has been completed, with key contract signing taking place on 29th April 2026. The method used was a direct award without prior competition publication, given the specific need for continuity with Savills (UK) Limited, who was awarded the contract valued at £70,000.

This tender offers significant opportunities for businesses, particularly those experienced in financial advisory, treasury consultancy, and bond issuance. It highlights the need for firms that can provide expert strategic advice, manage complex financial projects, and coordinate large issuance processes. Businesses that have an established relationship with the buyer or possess specialised insights into the buyer's financial strategies are especially well-suited to compete for similar opportunities in the future, as continuity and deep understanding of the buyer’s needs were critical considerations in this direct award process.

Procurement Information

Why direct award: We are directly awarding this work to Savills, our existing Treasury Advisors, for the following reasons: * Savills already have a deep understanding of Orbit's treasury strategy, financial position, risk appetite and governance, having supported as Treasury Advisors under the retainer. * Continuity of advisor is critical for a time sensitive and market dependent transaction, reducing delivery risk and avoiding duplication of work and cost. * The proposed fee represents value for money, with Savills offering a reduced rate compared to market norms for a bond issuance, recognising that this is under an already established EMTN programme, reducing from 10bps to 3bps.
