## Summary

Police and Crime Commissioner for Durham procured travel desk services to give the organisation access to national and international travel and accommodation bookings, together with a booking portal. The requirement covers travel arrangements and accommodation reservations rather than physical works or goods. The buying organisation is the Police and Crime Commissioner for Durham, based at Police Headquarters in Durham. The service category is travel services (CPV 63515000). The procurement relates to one completed lot and is intended to support the buyer’s travel booking needs through a managed service and online booking facility. Businesses operating travel management services, corporate travel booking platforms or accommodation reservation services would find the subject matter relevant.

The procurement has been completed and awarded through a competitive call-off under a framework, using a selective procedure. PERK UK LIMITED was awarded the contract on 31 July 2026. The award and contract value is £560,000 excluding VAT, or £672,000 including VAT. The contract was signed on 1 August 2026 and runs from 1 August 2026 to 31 July 2028, with provision for two optional 12-month extensions at the contracting authority’s discretion, giving a maximum period to 31 July 2030. The contract is active. Evaluation took place through the competitive framework award route; the available procurement record does not state the individual scoring criteria or weightings.

This award demonstrates established demand from Durham’s policing and public-sector environment for a managed travel desk covering both domestic and international journeys, accommodation bookings and online self-service capability. A credible competitor for similar work would need to provide reliable access to national and international travel inventory, arrange accommodation, and operate a booking portal that supports efficient booking by the buyer’s staff. The requirement also favours suppliers able to deliver an ongoing managed service rather than isolated travel transactions, with the operational capacity to handle bookings throughout a multi-year public-sector contract. Experience of winning or delivering competitive framework call-offs would help a supplier demonstrate that it can work through this purchasing route and meet the buyer’s service expectations.
