Global Travel, Accommodation and Venue Management Services

The RM6408 framework, managed by the Government Commercial Agency, provides comprehensive booking and management solutions for all UK Public Sector travel needs. The scope encompasses a wide array of services including air, rail, taxis, coaches, car hire, and accommodation, as well as venue sourcing for meetings, conferences, and events. Additionally, the framework supports emergency travel and accommodation solutions for civilian cohorts, including essential ancillary services such as welfare and security provision. The period of performance is estimated from April 15, 2027, to April 14, 2030, with a possible extension to April 13, 2033. Performance is required across the United Kingdom and various overseas territories, including Gibraltar, the Falkland Islands, and the British Virgin Islands. The framework is divided into eight specialized lots to ensure tailored delivery. These include UK and overseas business travel, UK-booked travel, venue find services, civilian programme accommodation, air charter and lease, passenger transport, online travel agent services for self-serve travel, and defense or other specialist travel services. Evaluation for these lots is based on quality criteria such as crisis response, operational resilience, safeguarding, and value for money. While some lots carry an estimated value of 36.25 billion GBP, the framework allows for an unlimited number of suppliers and caps the percentage fee charged to suppliers at 1%. Tenders for this open procedure must be submitted electronically by December 8, 2026.
