UK4 - Tender Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office has initiated a public procurement process for an open framework contract titled "Supply and Delivery of Paint, Painting Materials and Accessories for the BHC Accra." This procurement is categorised under goods, specifically focusing on the supply of paints and related materials. The process aims to establish a framework with three or more suppliers, delivering these goods to the British High Commission in Accra, Ghana. Although the process was active with a tender period closing on 16th June 2025, it faced challenges and resulted in cancellation on 20th August 2025 due to supplier participation issues. The procurement method was an open competition, below the threshold, facilitating electronic submissions.

This tender offers significant business growth opportunities for suppliers in the paint and accessories industry, particularly those with experience in international deliveries and public sector contracts. Companies specialising in large-scale deliveries or those capable of providing quality products and reliable logistics services would be well-suited for such a contract. While the initial tender faced hurdles, future opportunities for similar contracts may arise, necessitating strategic engagement and responsiveness to technical criteria. Interested parties should monitor upcoming tenders from the Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office for chances to participate.
