Summary of the contracting process

The Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office (FCDO) has awarded a contract for the purchase of chlorine and other water treatment chemicals to Deep Foundation for the British Embassy in Baghdad. This procurement process is complete, with the contract start date being 1st December 2025 and the end date scheduled for 30th November 2027, including an option for a two-year extension. The contract is valued at £51,040.54 and falls under the 'works' category, specifically for water-treatment activities in Iraq. The procurement method employed was limited competition, which took place below the threshold.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses operating within the water treatment and chemical supply sectors, particularly those with the capacity to deliver and maintain quality standards over an extended period, as stipulated by the embassies' requirements. Large enterprises with a focus on international operations and a presence in the region would be well-equipped to handle such contracts, leading to potential business growth through long-term governmental collaborations. Engaging in this type of procurement process provides businesses with exposure to central government projects, thereby expanding their portfolio and establishing credibility in international markets.
