Published requirement descriptionTransport for London (TfL), acting on behalf of the Greater London Authority (GLA), is seeking suitably qualified, experienced and appropriately regulated providers to deliver Specialist Immigration Advice Services (SIAS) for single adults experiencing, or at risk of, rough sleeping across London.
The services will provide immigration advice for people sleeping rough, and those at risk of rough sleeping, who need specialist support to clarify and/or regularise their immigration status so they can in turn prevent or end their rough sleeping and homelessness.
The Tender requirements will be consistent across 5 lots with Geographical/Regional focus being the sole distinguishing factor outlined below;

Core Services Required
Successful providers will be required to deliver the following 4(four) core service elements:
- Triage and Immigration Assessment Function
- Further Immigration Assessment Casework and Resolution
- Legal Aid Escalation
- Related Support, Partnership Working and Training
Optional services
Optional Services are not part of the initially contracted provision. They enable the GLA at its discretion, to commission additional volumes of the Core Services beyond those described in the Specification. The Greater London Authority (GLA) gives no guarantee as to the volume, value or timing of any Optional Services.
Optional Services can be activated by the GLA by variation to the contract, subject to operational need, funding availability, satisfactory Supplier performance and any other applicable contractual requirements.
Contract Duration and Value
The procurement comprises five geographical Lots. Service deliver is expected to commence in July 2027.
Lots 1 to 4 will each have an initial term of two (2) years, with a discretionary option to extend for up to a further four (4) years.
Lot 5 will have an initial term of one (1) year and nine (9) months, with a discretionary option to extend for up to a further four (4) years and three (3) months.
Term options may be invoked, whether in whole or in part, and may be allocated in any configuration comprising full years or fractional periods expressed in months. The maximum contract duration for each Lot, including any extension periods exercised, shall be six (6) years.
Any extension will be subject to funding availability, satisfactory performance and the relevant approvals.
The estimated aggregate value of the Core Services across all five Lots is approximately £6.1 million excluding VAT for the initial term and approximately £18.5 million excluding VAT over the maximum six-year period, inclusive of all available extension periods.
The procurement also includes provision for Optional Services of up to 50% of the Core Services value, which may be commissioned at the GLA's discretion, subject to future requirements and funding availability. The maximum potential aggregate value of the procurement across all five Lots, including Core and Optional Services, is approximately £27.9 million excluding VAT.
Please note this is the estimated maximum value. Actual expenditure under the contract may be lower than the estimated value stated in this notice.
There is no restriction on the number of Lots a Bidder may bid for. However, Bidders will be awarded a maximum of (2) two contracts for which they scored highest from a combined technical and commercial perspective Most advantageous Tender(MAT), provided the total value of all the awarded contracts does not exceed 150% of their annual turnover.
In the case that one bidder scores highest on more than two Lot(s), or fails to satisfy the Authorities financial standing requirement, the Authority will seek to award that bidder the contract for the Lot(s) where their overall score wins by the greatest margin over the second highest bidder's overall score for that Lot and where all other conditions to award are met, the highest ranked bidder will be award those Contract only. The remaining Lot(s)/Contract will be awarded to the second highest overall scoring bidder for that Lot and where all other condition to award are met. This is referred to as the marginal benefit approach.
Full details of the lot allocation methodology, service requirements, deliverables, performance measures, and reporting obligations are contained within the Invitation to Tender and Specification.
- The authority expects to re-tender this requirement around 30 Jun 2028, 23:59 BST.

How this buyer will score bids.
The evaluation criteria and weights exactly as published on the notice, grouped by family (price, quality, social value and so on).
Published sub-criteria (2)
- Criterion 1: Quality: 80%
- Criterion 2: Price: 20%
Published award criteria (2)
- Criterion 1: Quality
- Criterion 2: Price
No conditions of participation were published on the notice; check the tender documents.
- Price carries 20 of 100 points: a 10% discount moves about 2 points. The method statement decides this lot, not the discount.
- Turnover usually expected: about £2,949,343 – ~£7,944,619 per lot (twice each lot's annual value).
Price arithmetic assumes straight proportional scoring; the tender pack may use another formula. Turnover is an indicative market norm (≈2× annual value), not a published condition.

How the contest usually goes
Winner shares use published awards; bid and price charts use contested lots.
i
How often small and medium firms win.
Share of awards where the winner’s size is known.
The counts under this question show how many awards have a known supplier size.
Small firms have won here. Neither number says whether you qualify; it describes who has been winning.
i
How often local firms win similar work.
Winners with a registered address in the delivery region, out of awards with a known address.
Local means the winner is registered in the region where that award was delivered.
A local branch does not count if the registered address is elsewhere.
Most of this buyer’s recorded winners were registered in the region where that award was delivered.
i
How long buyers here take to decide after bids close.
Middle value in days from the bid deadline to the award date, on competitions that published both.
Only decided tenders count, so slow ones still waiting are not in.
Half of these awards have an award date within 132 days of the bid deadline.
i
How often work is awarded with no recorded rival.
Direct awards and tenders where every published lot count shows one bid.
Both shares are minimums: some awards have no bid count.
Thin markets produce this too; it is not proof of a tailored specification.
Direct awards or one recorded bid are common here. Check the route before spending time on a bid.

About this data
- Source. Official UK public procurement notices (Find a Tender), reused under the Open Government Licence v3.0. New notices arrive through the day; the figures are rebuilt nightly. Contracts Finder contracts appear on the Retender Radar, not yet in these figures.
- Two views, kept apart. The authority’s own track record and the wider market for the same kind of work sit side by side and are never mixed. Where the local picture is too thin, a figure widens to a broader market and says which one it used.
- Forecasts are labelled. The price forecast and its range, possible competitors and the earlier-work matches are our estimates from past awards: not published facts, not win chances and not price advice. Official notices do not say who is bidding.
- Every figure shows what it rests on. Not every notice publishes a bid count, a value or a delivery region, so each figure carries the number of records behind it, and one built on few records is marked as such. The on a figure explains it; the counting rules are in the methodology. Spotted something wrong? Tell us.
