This procurement is currently in the Tender stage, with a deadline for submissions set for 13th March 2017. The estimated value of the contract ranges from £100 million to £450 million, and the services will be delivered across various locations including the United Kingdom and British Overseas Territories. The contract period is expected to commence on 1st July 2017 and conclude by 30th June 2022, following the extension of the current contract until 31st October 2017 to facilitate the transition. This tender presents a significant opportunity for businesses specialising in humanitarian aid, logistics, and emergency response services, particularly those that are small to medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs). Companies with experience in managing rapid-onset emergencies and providing operational support are encouraged to participate. Engaging in this contract can enhance a business's portfolio and credibility in the humanitarian sector, leveraging the expertise expected by DFID and the Stabilisation Unit during critical response operations. ## Notice The Department for International Development (DFID) and the Stabilisation Unit (SU) have outsourced some of their emergency response and operations capability since the early 1990s. The current Humanitarian and Emergency Operations Support Service (HEOSS) contract is due to end on 30th April 2017, and will be extended until 31st October 2017 to allow this tender process to complete, and a suitable transition from HEOSS to Humanitarian Emergency Response, Operations and Stabilisation Programme (HEROS). DFID and the SU, as the joint beneficiaries of this contract, are now seeking to appoint a service provider to deliver HEROS. There are three overarching objectives of this programme: 1. Humanitarian emergency response management for rapid onset response, protracted crises, chronic emergencies and humanitarian reform (DFID only) 2. Operational capability and deployments (DFID and SU) 3. Procurement, logistics and infrastructure expertise and operational capability (DFID and SU) Additional information: All relevant information relating to this Contract Notice can be found on the DFID Supplier Portal where suppliers can register their interest directly.
