Summary of the contracting process

The Foreign & Commonwealth Office (FCO) is planning to procure VIP Transport Services for COP 26, with a contract period commencing on 1st July 2020 and concluding on 31st December 2020. Although a competitive tender is not yet open, interested suppliers can access a Request for Information (RFI) by registering on the Jaggaer eSourcing Portal. To do so, suppliers must complete a Non-Disclosure Agreement (NDA) by 12 noon on 11th March 2020. The procurement process is classified under the CPV code for transport services (excluding waste transport) and will be based primarily in London, UK.

This procurement presents an opportunity for SMEs specialising in transport services to expand their business reach, particularly those equipped to handle high-profile events. The potential for growth exists due to the nature of COP 26, requiring reliable transportation solutions for VIPs. Businesses that can demonstrate experience in providing tailored transport solutions, compliance with confidentiality agreements, and the capacity to operate within a stringent timeframe would be particularly well-suited to compete for this contract.
