UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office procured payroll services for the British Embassy in Budapest. The work covers personnel and payroll services for the embassy; the published scope does not describe further activities or staffing arrangements. The service is delivered in Budapest, Hungary, for a UK government department. This is a focused payroll-services requirement rather than a general embassy support contract.

The procurement is complete and a supplier has been selected: WTS Klient Gazdasági Tanácsadó Kft. The department used a below-threshold limited competition for a single lot. The contract was signed on 30 September 2026 and runs from 1 October 2026 to 30 September 2029, with a stated maximum extension to 30 September 2031. The extension is a further 24 months, subject to satisfactory performance. The contract value is £56,851.55. The published procurement data does not set out the evaluation criteria or their weighting.

For suppliers considering similar payroll work for the Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office, this award shows demand for payroll provision to a British embassy in Budapest, delivered through a limited competition. A credible competitor would need to demonstrate reliable payroll and personnel administration for an overseas diplomatic mission, with the operational capability to serve the Budapest location and meet the buyer’s performance expectations over a multi-year contract. The selected provider is a large Hungarian business, indicating that local-market presence and relevant payroll expertise are commercially pertinent. The requirement is narrowly focused on embassy payroll, so suppliers whose core offer is general consultancy or unrelated embassy services may be less closely aligned.
