## Summary

The Department for International Development (DFID) has awarded the "DFID 8015 Cities and Infrastructure for Growth (CIG) - Uganda" contract, aimed at enhancing cities' functionality in Uganda. This contract, valued at £20 million, falls under the category of foreign economic-aid-related services and is part of a selective procurement method, specifically a restricted procedure above the threshold. The contract period commenced on 31 May 2018 and will run until 31 May 2023. The procurement process reflects a focus on infrastructure development and service delivery across multiple regions, including the UK and British Overseas Territories.

This contract presents lucrative opportunities for businesses, particularly those specialising in infrastructure services, energy provision, and urban development. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs) are well-suited to compete, especially those with a track record in delivering reliable energy, water, sanitation, and transport services. Leveraging support from DFID's initiatives can further empower businesses aiming to contribute to the economic growth of Ugandan cities.

## Notice

CIG is in line with the goal of promoting global prosperity set out in the UK Aid Strategy. It will enable cities to function effectively, attract new businesses and create employment. It will provide reliable energy for households and businesses, thereby reducing production costs and removing the barriers to investment in much needed infrastructure services, such as energy, water and sanitation, transport and communications.
