## Summary

The procurement process involves the Department for International Development, which is seeking to amend the DFID 8510 Support to the Health System in DRC Programme, specifically relating to contract amendment number 1. This initiative, classed under foreign economic-aid-related services, is located in the United Kingdom and is currently at the award stage. The amendment introduces an increase of £3,000,000 to the financial limit for an urgent response to Covid-19, raising the total budget to £4,500,000. Key dates include the contract's commencement on 24 April 2019 and its expiry on 30 September 2020, with the award notice published on 5 August 2020.

This contract offers significant opportunities for businesses, particularly those in the healthcare and crisis response sectors, to expand their operations in response to urgent needs arising from the ongoing pandemic. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary community and social enterprises (VCSEs) would be well-suited to compete for this work, especially considering the focus on service provisions aimed at enhancing health systems. With a total initial value of £35,000,000, the financial incentives make participation in this procurement highly attractive for potential suppliers.

## Notice

These amendments relate to an increase of PS3,000,000 to the Financial Limit, as updated in Section 1 and Section 5; the addition of sub-contractors, as updated in Section 4; and the addition of Annex A to Section 3. The purpose of the amendment is for an urgent Covid-19 response. Note that the Covid-19 related budget adds to PS4,500,000 million - PS3,000,000 from the increase in the Financial Limit and PS1,500,000 from savings to date on the original Contract.
