Practical solutions for assets
on the path to liquidation.

Auction Company & RFP Support

Organized proposals. Controlled inspections. Informed decisions.

Northmark helps Insolvency Professionals organize the selection of an auction company and manage its access to assets earmarked for liquidation.

We provide practical site attendance, proposal coordination, and clear documentation—from inviting submissions to supporting evaluation and coordinating the selected company’s work.

01 / Procurement

Prepare & invite

Auction Company Outreach

Identify prospective auction companies and circulate the opportunity to suitable providers under the Insolvency Professional’s instructions. Track interest and participation.

RFP Preparation

Assist with drafting the scope of work, asset information, site conditions, submission requirements, timelines, and evaluation criteria.

RFP Administration

Manage distribution, deadlines, questions, clarifications, and addenda. Maintain a record of communications and proposals received.

02 / Site attendance

Control site inspections

Site Inspection Scheduling

Coordinate viewing appointments and communicate access instructions, safety requirements, and inspection conditions.

Physical Attendance & Access

Attend the site to admit authorized representatives, unlock access points, supervise viewing, and secure the premises afterward.

Attendee Registration

Record each attendee’s name, contact information, company represented, arrival and departure times, and purpose of the visit.

Safety Protocol Monitoring

Communicate site-specific safety rules, check required protective equipment, identify restricted areas, and document observed non-compliance. Escalate concerns under the agreed site procedures.

Controlled Asset Viewing

Guide representatives to designated assets and monitor compliance with instructions concerning photography, equipment operation, testing, and handling.

Consistent Information Sharing

Provide approved asset lists and supporting information. Record questions and distribute material clarifications consistently to participating auction companies.

03 / Evaluation

Compare & support the decision

Proposal Comparison

Prepare comparisons of commissions, fees, expenses, marketing plans, sale formats, timelines, payment terms, and asset-removal arrangements.

Estimated Net Recovery Analysis

Compare projected proceeds after disclosed costs. Clearly identify assumptions, exclusions, guarantees, and estimates.

Evaluation Support

Assess submissions against agreed criteria, flag missing information, and prepare a decision summary. The Insolvency Professional retains final selection and approval authority.

04 / Delivery

Coordinate through handover

Appointment & Handover Coordination

Coordinate the selected auction company’s access, inventory review, photography, cataloguing, and operational requirements.

Performance Reporting

Track agreed milestones, relay issues, and document progress during auction preparation, sale, and removal.

Post-Sale Site Coordination

Facilitate authorized purchaser and transportation access, document asset releases, and report remaining assets or site issues.
