## Summary

The Department for International Development is seeking to amend its existing contract titled "DFID 5248 PRIME (Programme for Improving Mental Health Care) Improving Mental Health Services in Low Income Countries - Contract Amendment No. 5". This procurement falls under the category of Foreign economic-aid-related services and has a total value of £1,998,329. The contract period is from 1st June 2011 to 30th April 2019, with the award date noted as 18th May 2011. The procurement was conducted via a restricted procedure, and the delivery addresses encompass various regions including the United Kingdom and British Overseas Territories.

This amendment presents significant growth opportunities for businesses, particularly those in the mental health service sector and organisations specialising in foreign aid services. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs) may find themselves particularly well-suited to respond, given the focus on improving mental health services in low-income countries. This contract could allow these businesses to expand their capabilities and gain valuable experience in international development projects.
