Summary of the contracting process

FCDO Services is procuring structural repair works to the perimeter wall in Istanbul, Türkiye. The work is intended to restore the stability and strength of compromised masonry, stop further deterioration and provide a 10-year residual life with routine maintenance. It also includes removing hazards from loose coping and corroded metalwork, improving drainage and accommodating future ground movement. This is a construction opportunity focused on structural and masonry repairs to an existing wall, rather than a new-build project. The delivery location is Istanbul. The requirement brings together repairs to the wall fabric and metalwork with measures to manage water and ground movement, so it is relevant to contractors whose work covers these elements.

FCDO Services invited offers through an open competition for works. The tender set an enquiry deadline of 3 November 2026 at 17:00 and a bid deadline of 17 November 2026 at 12:00. The contract period is scheduled to run from 14 December 2026 to 30 April 2027. The estimated value is £2,640,399 excluding VAT and £3,168,479 including VAT. The procurement is a single lot. Evaluation balances quality and price at 60:40; technical quality accounts for 60% of the overall weighting, the lowest quoted price receives the maximum 30% price score, and the lowest total for three hypothetical compensation-event scenarios receives the maximum 10% scenario score. A zero score on any criterion may result in disqualification.

The requirement is marked as suitable for small and medium-sized businesses and for voluntary, community and social enterprises. It may therefore suit specialist building and civil engineering contractors able to undertake structural masonry repairs on an existing perimeter wall, including work to coping and corroded metalwork. Relevant capability also includes improving drainage and managing the effects of future ground movement. The intended outcome—a stable repaired wall with a 10-year residual life under routine maintenance—favours suppliers able to plan durable repairs and account for ongoing maintenance needs. Technical quality carries substantial weight in the evaluation, so bidders should be prepared to demonstrate a strong technical approach alongside competitive pricing. No particular accreditation or minimum experience threshold is stated in the procurement information.
