Notice Title

Consultancy Services and Research on Technologies for Automatic Pension Enrollment

Notice Description

Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office (FCDO) has awarded a contract to D3P Global for a provider of consultancy services and research on technologies for automatic pension enrollment in China. The supplier is contracted to carry out research and analysis on automatic pensions enrollment in China, the UK and other relevant countries and write a report detailing which identified technologies might be replicated in China to support future automatic pensions enrollment.
