Third Party Monitoring for Building Peace and Security in Iraq programme (BPSI) Early Market Engagement

Tender description

At this stage, the aim of the EME is to discuss the service requirement and potential routes to market. FCDO is keen to ask the views of the market regarding the most effective means of delivering the programme's objectives and service outputs, including the best management approach. We would welcome the participation of both national and international organisations, across both the for-profit and non-profit sectors. Currently our preferred delivery sourcing vehicle would be through a commercial contract. We would particularly welcome input from those with experience in delivering programmes in fragile and conflict-affected states with access challenges. FCDO aims to consult on the following topics: - Assessing levels of market interest and capability to bid for this Programme. - Creating an opportunity for an exchange of questions and answers between FCDO and potential suppliers. - Levelling the playing field and providing key information to the marketplace. Items for discussion during the EME include: - Market views on the best commercial approach to procure the required services. - How would such a programme be best managed? - Market views on the timelines required for programme mobilisation. FCDO is likely to undertake a competitive tender for this service in the first 6 months of 2023.
