Summary, notice description and lot information
Kent County Council is conducting the "Refugee Resettlement Scheme" to provide resettlement and integration support for refugees relocating to Kent under official government schemes, including the United Kingdom Resettlement Scheme (UKRS), Afghan Relocation and Assistance Programme (ARAP), and Afghan Citizen Resettlement Scheme (ACRS), as well as other eligible UK government resettlement programmes. The procurement, classified under Health and Social Work Services (CPV 85000000), is currently in the award stage with key dates such as contract signing on March 11, 2025. The contract involves services and furnishings for homes and covers the UKJ4 region.
This tender presents significant business growth opportunities, particularly for organisations specialising in social work, resettlement services, and domestic furnishing provision. The contract's estimated value of GBP 2,672,745 provides substantial scope for service providers like the British Refugee Council, who have been successfully awarded the contract for the resettlement support lot. Suppliers of domestic furniture and household items would equally find opportunities within the tender as there is a specific lot designated for furnishing homes under the resettlement programme.
The procurement method is selective, employing a restricted procedure, thereby encouraging experienced and capable businesses to participate.
