This procurement opportunity, under the competitive flexible procedure, falls within the banking and investment services industry category and is open to UK-based service providers. Interested suppliers should note that key dates include the submission deadline on 8th May 2026 at 23:55 and presentation assessments scheduled for the week commencing 1st June 2026. The tender process is in the 'Tender' stage and supports the Start Up Loans scheme, offering debt finance to early-stage UK businesses, with a contract start date from 15th September 2026, potentially extending until September 2033. This tender presents a robust opportunity for businesses specialising in financial services technology, particularly those with experience in developing comprehensive loan management systems. The contract, valued at approximately GBP 4.9 million with a gross value of GBP 5.88 million, emphasises quality, affordability, and social value in its award criteria. Enterprises capable of providing a fully integrated LMS to replace the bank's current mixed-platform approach are well-suited to compete, especially those recognised as SMEs, as they demonstrate potential to enhance the operational efficiency and scalability of the British Business Bank's financial offerings. ## Notice The British Business Bank is the UK's economic development bank, with a mission to make finance markets work better for smaller businesses. BBB typically operates on a wholesale basis, partnering with lenders within the existing financial ecosystem to increase the supply, diversity, and regional reach of finance available to UK SMEs. The Start Up Loans scheme (SUL) provides debt finance in the form of a personal loan, to help individuals to start or grow their early stage businesses, driving sustainable growth and unlocking potential. Without SUL, many aspiring entrepreneurs would not be able to secure the finance and support to start and grow their businesses. The operating model utilises a mix of internal platforms and external service providers to support the full loan lifecycle - including disbursement, servicing, collections and recoveries. To support future growth, we are preparing to deliver direct lending operations. As part of this, we are seeking FCA approval for a subsidiary of the British Business Bank to become a direct lender and therefore need to procure a comprehensive Loan Management System (LMS) capable of fully supporting this operating model. Tenderers are also directed to the Specification for the Project Requirements, as set out in Appendix 6 (Specification) of the Invitation To Participate (ITP).
