## Summary

The procurement process entitled "Institutional Strengthening for the Building Resilience & Addressing Vulnerability to Emergencies (BRAVE) Programme" was facilitated by the Foreign Commonwealth and Development Office, based in London, England. This selective procurement was executed as a call-off from a framework agreement, focusing on foreign economic-aid-related services. The procurement stage has reached the Award phase as of 24 February 2026, following the tender period which concluded on 29 January 2026. The contract is active from 30 January 2026 to 31 August 2029, with a total value of £18,000,000. The services impact multiple locations including the British Overseas Territories, the Channel Islands, Isle of Man, Europe, and the United Kingdom.

This contract presents significant opportunities for businesses providing technical assistance and capacity-building services, especially those experienced in institutional strengthening. The procurement method favours small and medium enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs), suggesting that smaller, agile companies could effectively compete and potentially collaborate with larger entities like DAI Global UK Ltd, the awarded supplier. This engagement not only promises financial benefit but also enhances business presence within the public sector's international development activities.
