## Summary

VisitBritain procured a travel management service to bring its travel bookings into one functional system. The requirement covers worldwide booking and management of hotels, flights, trains and other necessary transport. This is a business travel and travel agency service, including supporting and auxiliary transport services (CPV 63000000). Delivery covers VisitBritain’s Birmingham operation and travel throughout the United Kingdom, Europe, the Channel Islands, the Isle of Man, British Overseas Territories and the rest of the world. The procurement is for services and was arranged by VisitBritain as the buyer. It is relevant to travel management companies, corporate booking platform providers and suppliers able to coordinate multiple transport and accommodation arrangements across international destinations.

The procurement has been completed and awarded. It used a selective call-off from the Government Commercial Agency RM6342 Travel, Transport, Accommodation and Venue Solutions Framework Agreement, Lot 1 for UK and overseas booked business travel, civilian programmes and emergency response. Bids closed on 26 March 2026 at 12:00 UTC. The contract was awarded to Corporate Travel Management (North) Limited on 17 August 2026 for £5,000,000. The contract period runs from 18 August 2026 to 17 August 2030. The requirement was identified as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises. The award is active, and the procurement was evaluated through the framework call-off process.

This award demonstrates sustained demand from VisitBritain for an integrated corporate travel management capability rather than a single transport service. A credible future competitor would need to manage hotels, flights, rail and other travel modes through one efficient booking process, support business travel across the UK and a wide range of international destinations, and handle varied travel requirements through the relevant government framework route. Suppliers should be able to provide reliable operational coordination, broad travel inventory and responsive service for a public-sector organisation with overseas activity. The requirement is explicitly suitable for SMEs, so a specialist travel management company or technology-enabled provider with sufficient international reach and delivery capacity could be well placed when this type of service is next considered.
