## Summary

The Department for International Development (DFID) has completed the contract award for the DFID 8255 Ethiopia Portfolio Assurance Programme Phase 2, aimed at enhancing its management of governance and financial risks within its portfolio. The contract, valued at £701,200, is classified under foreign economic-aid-related services, following a selective procurement method through a framework agreement. The contract period spans from November 12, 2018, to November 5, 2021, with the tender procedure being initiated and completed before the tender period closed on April 19, 2018.

This contract presents a significant opportunity for businesses specialising in governance and risk management services, particularly small and medium enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs). Companies with expertise in providing economic aid and managing large-scale development programmes would be well-positioned to compete, especially those targeting international development projects in regions like Ethiopia. The ongoing relationship with DFID could lead to further collaborations and contract opportunities in the evolving landscape of international aid.
