The process includes two key schemes: the Relocation Introductory Scheme and the Relocation Company Scheme, providing assistance for housing moves and temporary transfers. Located in Glasgow, the MoD anticipates initiating this process with the expiry of the current contract set for the end of November 2026. The preliminary market engagement is underway with a deadline for the submission of Request for Information (RFI) until 30th April 2025, followed by potential 1:1 meetings with interested parties. The overall procurement stage is currently tagged as 'planning', with further notice expected by 1st December 2025. This tender presents substantial opportunities for companies specialising in relocation, legal services, removals, and property marketing, to strengthen their presence in government contracts. It is well-suited for SMEs and social enterprises, as the planned lot includes specific suitability criteria for these entities. The MoD has a substantial procurement budget and invites engagement to refine the offerings, thus opening avenues for businesses to explore tailored approaches to employee relocation challenges. The contract allows participation from Other Government Departments and Agencies, thereby broadening the scope for collaboration and innovation in relocation services. This is an excellent prospect for firms ready to offer comprehensive, competitive, and innovative relocation solutions. ## Notice MoD civilian employee relocation provision is the supporting services offered through a specialised relocation company contract. The current requirements encompass two schemes; a Relocation Introductory Scheme (RIS) and a Relocation Company Scheme (RCS) which provide services to the MoD and to staff authorised by the MoD to participate in such Schemes. The requirements cover services for moves of home (e.g. Home Sale, legal services, removals, estate agents, marketing of properties, partner career support etc.) and temporary transfers (provision of introductory rental services). ### Planning Information Initially we are asking you to complete a Request for Information (RFI) attached to this notice and submit it by 17:00 on 30th April 2025.
