## Summary

The Foreign Commonwealth and Development Office has awarded a contract for the Projects Task Force Consultancy Support to Oliver Wyman. The contract involves general management consultancy services with a value of £4,000,000. The procurement method used was selective, involving a call-off from a framework agreement. The tender period ended on 26th July 2023, and the contract period is from 4th September 2023 to 3rd September 2025, with the office address for delivery located in London, SW1A 2AH.

This tender for consultancy services presents an opportunity for management consultancy providers to engage with the FCDO's Projects Task Force. Businesses well-suited to compete in this procurement process would need expertise in general management consultancy services and the capacity to support critical projects within the FCDO. As the contract involves working with the PTF team on high-priority strategic projects, interested businesses should be prepared for project-based work with monthly oversight and alignment with FCDO priorities.

## Notice

Oliver Wyman has been appointed via CCS's MCF3 Framework by the FCDO to support with the following: The FCDO requires a contract with a Management Consultancy provider via MCF3 to work with the FCDO's in-house consulting team, the Projects Task Force (PTF), to provide expertise on a call on/off basis. Consultants will work alongside PTF staff to meet clearly defined project deliverables for organisationally critical projects. Their work will be allocated and overseen by a monthly Project Allocation Board (PAB) and will be explicitly linked to FCDO priorities (as approved personally by the Permanent Under Secretary - PUS). This consultancy requirement allows the PTF to access the variety of skills and external experience needed to meet the demand for high priority strategic projects across the FCDO. The FCDO will draw down form the contract as and well required, dependent on the pipeline of priorities agreed on a monthly basis by the Permanent Under Secretary. The arrangement will also include significant knowledge transfer, to be codified at the end of each individual project via in-house capability building sessions - to the benefit of wider FCDO teams and specifically the PTF.
