Immigration

We assisted a client with a successful tender to the Home Office for the management, operation, and maintenance of the Gatwick Immigration Removal Centre for high and low risk detainees. Our team of four writer, led by our Managing Director, supported across both the Invitation to Tender, Negotiation, and Best and Final Offer (BAFO) stages, which lasted 6 months.

This was a successful project for the client and led to a contract win. Since then, with our support, the client has also won Dungavel and Derwentside IRCs.

Kittle Group prepared three tenders to the Home Office for the provision of accommodation for asylum seekers across the Midlands, North East, and North West. It also included transport, welfare checks, and property maintenance.

We joined this bid while it was in distress, with the client struggling to articulate the solution in a way that would resonate with the Home Office. Our team reworked the existing responses to identify gaps in information, in particular, the added value and benefits they would bring. This was a significant project for us, requiring us to draft around 1 million words in just over 3 weeks.

The outcome was a successful bid for the client and contract win across three regions. Since then, we have also supported the client win contracts with two more IRCs.

We prepared a tender to the Home Office for a United Nations’ refugee programme. We helped the client to articulate their solution for reception arrangements, transport, and practical support over 12 months to adjust to life in the UK and integrate into local communities.

Our Senior Writer worked with the client’s team, running workshops, including project planning; welfare support; IT systems; and recruitment, training, and management of staff and volunteers.

We took this information to map the refugee’s journey throughout their initial 12 months in the UK and how the client’s support facilitates successful resettlement and integration. We then drafted the proposal for the Home Office.

The outcome was a successful bid for the client and a contract win.
