## Summary

The Department for International Development (DFID) has completed a contract amendment titled "DFID 7137 Youth Volunteering Scheme Contract Amendment No 1," valued at £14,999,985. This amendment is set to deliver an additional 3,050 International Citizen Service (ICS) placements from September 2018 to August 2019, extending the existing contract by 10 months to accommodate planning for a successor programme. The contract was officially awarded on 31 August 2015, with a contract period running from 1 September 2015 to 31 December 2019, and is classified under foreign economic-aid-related services.

This contract presents significant opportunities for businesses, particularly small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary and community sector organisations (VCSEs), looking to engage in international development and volunteering services. Companies with experience in managing youth volunteering programmes or similar social initiatives would be particularly well-suited to compete in future procurement opportunities stemming from this contract's continuation and the development of its successor programme.
