Summary of the contracting process

The Foreign Commonwealth and Development Office (FCDO), based in London, England, executed an open procurement process for Integrated Facilities Management services at the British Embassies in Dubai and Abu Dhabi. This process is classified under the industry category of Building and Facilities Management Services (CPV code 79993000). Initially published on 24 October 2024, the tender process concluded with the award on 11 March 2025. The contract, valued at £767,925.14 GBP, commenced on 1 April 2025 and is set to end on 31 March 2027. The procurement stage is complete, with EFS Investment L.L.C., a large-scale supplier located in Dubai, United Arab Emirates, being awarded the contract. The procurement method employed was an open procedure above the threshold, demonstrating a competitive environment suitable for businesses aiming to expand in the services sector.

This contract offers significant opportunities for businesses specialising in facilities management services, providing a platform for growth in international markets, particularly in the Middle East. The open procurement procedure indicates a fair competition stance, making it an attractive opportunity for small and medium enterprises (SMEs) that meet the criteria set by the FCDO. Companies with robust management systems and experience in managing large-scale facilities on a multinational stage, particularly those capable of operating within diverse geographic locations—as outlined in various delivery addresses, including British Overseas Territories and the United Kingdom—stand to gain greatly from participation in similar future tenders.
