Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The Foreign Commonwealth and Development Office has completed the procurement process for the purchase of a passenger vehicle for official use by the British Embassy in Zagreb. This tender, classified under the motor vehicles category, involved a procurement method of "Request for quotation" and was awarded on 22nd October 2024. The contract period runs from 1st November 2024 to 31st March 2025. Although the vehicle is intended for use in Zagreb, the contractor is expected to deliver to multiple locations, including the British Overseas Territories, Channel Islands, Europe, Isle of Man, Rest of the World, and the United Kingdom. The procurement was specifically open to small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), though it did not specify suitability for voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs).

This procurement offers a valuable opportunity for businesses in the automotive industry, especially those experienced in supplying governmental and diplomatic vehicles. Small and medium-sized enterprises in this sector can benefit from securing such contracts, which may lead to further opportunities within government procurement. The awarded supplier, Porsche Inter Auto, exemplifies the potential for companies with a strong track record and the ability to execute sizeable contracts to effectively compete and grow their business through government tenders.
