Summary of the contracting process

The Foreign and Commonwealth Office (FCO) is currently seeking expressions of interest for the construction of a new British High Commission located at 140 Sussex Drive in Ottawa, Canada. This procurement falls under the construction industry category and is at the Tender stage, with submissions being accepted until 15th April 2020. The project will commence on 7th September 2020, with an expected completion date of 20th December 2021. The procurement methodology is a selective procedure, which is considered above the threshold, and only principal contractors are invited to submit tenders.

This opportunity presents significant potential for businesses in the construction sector, particularly those with experience in similar contracts and large-scale projects. Contractors capable of delivering comprehensive construction services and managing project responsibilities would be well-positioned to compete for this tender. As the project involves demolishing ancillary buildings while the existing residence remains occupied, it requires effective project management and coordination, making it particularly suited for businesses with experience in complex construction environments.
