Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process titled "International Climate Finance: Portfolio-level Monitoring Evaluation and Learning (ICF PMEL)" is spearheaded by the Foreign Commonwealth and Development Office (FCDO) in London, England. This tender, classified under foreign economic-aid-related services, addresses ICF monitoring, evaluation, and learning needs across multiple locations, including British Overseas Territories, the Channel Islands, Europe, the Isle of Man, the rest of the world, and the United Kingdom. The procurement method primarily involved a selective call-off from a framework agreement. The contract period will span from 25 June 2026 to 31 March 2030. Although the tender process has concluded with an award, full details remain essential for understanding the specific opportunities during the duration of the contract.

This tender can open avenues for businesses capable of handling significant portfolio-level monitoring and evaluation tasks associated with Official Development Assistance. While the process was selective and included call-offs from existing frameworks, it highlights the importance of established expertise and strategic capabilities within the field of economic-aid services. Companies that can showcase robust understanding and capability in complex policy-oriented projects, and have previously interacted with governmental departments or related agencies, stand to gain substantial growth and networking opportunities from projects of this magnitude.
