Summary of the contracting process

The Foreign Commonwealth and Development Office (FCDO) has completed a procurement process for GovWifi hardware and associated licences aimed at expanding GovWifi throughout its estate. This procurement falls under the Hardware industry category and covers various locations including the United Kingdom, Channel Islands, Isle of Man, Europe, British Overseas Territories, and the Rest of the World. The procurement was conducted through a selective method involving a call-off from a framework agreement, with the contract period running from 25th July 2024 to 24th July 2027. The total contract value is £500,499.78. Notably, the procurement is well-suited for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), though it is not specifically aimed at voluntary, community and social enterprises (VCSEs).

This tender presents a significant opportunity for businesses involved in the provision of computer hardware and associated services to expand their market presence. SMEs in particular can leverage this procurement to establish or strengthen their relationship with a prominent government department like the FCDO. Companies with experience in international delivery and capable of providing comprehensive solutions for large-scale hardware deployments across multiple regions will be particularly well-suited to compete for such contracts.
