Summary of the contracting process

The public procurement process pertains to the Department for International Development, which aimed to establish a new programme in response to urgent humanitarian needs in Yemen. This tender, originally titled "Foreign economic-aid-related services", was published on 9th February 2015 under the open procedure method. The primary industry category is classified as agricultural, forestry, horticultural, aquacultural, and apicultural services. Although the tender period had a deadline of 1st May 2015, the process was ultimately cancelled, reflecting changes in priorities or circumstances. The contract period was intended to span from January 1st, 2016, to January 1st, 2020, with a total contract value estimated at £481,738.

This opportunity, although cancelled, illustrates the need for organisations capable of delivering impactful humanitarian aid and development services, particularly those with experience in engaging civil society for governance and service delivery improvements. Businesses specialising in advocacy training, community engagement, and capacity building would find similar future tenders appealing. Furthermore, bidders that can demonstrate effective strategies for promoting accountability and inclusivity in governance are well-suited to compete in upcoming tenders related to humanitarian support and public service reform.
