## Summary

The Department for International Development (DFID) is currently engaged in the procurement of the "DFID 8265 Global Mine Action Programme - Bridging Extension Contract." This contract, valued at £3,000,000, is intended to provide temporary continuation of services for mine clearance and risk education activities in various locations including Burma, Cambodia, Somalia, South Sudan, and Zimbabwe. The procurement method used for this limited process involves a negotiated procedure without prior publication, concluding on 8 February 2018, with the contract set to commence on 1 April 2018 and last until 31 July 2018.

This tender presents a significant opportunity for businesses involved in humanitarian services, particularly those specialising in mine action, land clearance, and community education initiatives. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs) are particularly encouraged to apply, given their suitability in providing such services. As DFID continues to work in regions requiring mine action, this contract can facilitate business growth, enabling firms to expand their operations and contribute positively to recovery efforts in affected areas.

## Notice

The Global Mine Action Programme (GMAP) has been operational since July 2014 and will end on 31 March 2018, through multiple contracts with several implementing partners. A new competitive tendering process for The Global Mine Action Programme 2 (GMAP 2) will shortly be published. GMAP 2 will continue work in Burma, Cambodia, Somalia, South Sudan and Zimbabwe, with an anticipated start date of 1 July 2018. These Terms of Reference (ToR) cover temporary continuation of services to be provided between 1 April 2018 and 31 July 2018, under the re-titled programme "Global Mine Action Programme - Bridging Extension (GMAP - BE)" whilst the new tendering process is completed. This temporary continuation of services will allow the Department for International Development (DFID) to continue land mine and explosive remnants of war (ERW) clearance and mine risk education (MRE) activities in Burma, Cambodia, Somalia, South Sudan and Zimbabwe as part of Phase 2 of the programme.
