## Summary

The Global Evaluation and Monitoring Framework Agreement 2 (GEMFA 2) is a significant procurement initiative managed by the Foreign Commonwealth and Development Office (FCDO), located in East Kilbride, Scotland. This framework aims to facilitate access to Monitoring, Evaluation, and Learning (MEL) services for FCDO and other Government Departments across various thematic regions. The agreement is structured into 8 lots covering global and regional contracts, with particular emphasis on adaptability, value, and expert provision. The agreement commenced on 1st September 2025, with a three-year term ending on 31st August 2028, and includes an optional one-year extension. The overall financial allocation for the framework is set at £500 million. The procurement process followed a restricted procedure, focusing on foreign economic-aid-related services, and concluded with an active award status dated 29th September 2025.

GEMFA 2 represents a substantial opportunity for businesses, particularly those specialising in high-quality Monitoring, Evaluation, and Learning services. Large companies and small and medium enterprises (SMEs) alike can benefit from engaging in this competitive environment. The framework's emphasis on providing specialised regional expertise and niche skills means that businesses capable of offering innovative and effective MEL solutions can significantly enhance their presence and credibility in the sector. By participating, businesses can engage in continuous development of their supplier base, leveraging the procurement process to refine strategies and track marketplace dynamics. This initiative is especially appealing to organisations with the capacity to manage multi-disciplinary teams and deliver sophisticated evaluation frameworks across diverse geographical locales.

## Notice

GEMFA 2 will replace and build upon the current Global Evaluation and Monitoring Framework Agreement (GEMFA). GEMFA 2 will enable FCDO and other Government Departments (OGDs) to access Monitoring, Evaluation and Learning capacity in a cost efficient and effective manner across multiple thematic areas. It will enable FCDO/OGDs to commission multi-disciplinary teams of quality professionals to design, manage and deliver Monitoring, Evaluation and Learning services with greater agility and innovation whilst maintaining fair competition. GEMFA 2 is available for ODA funded, non-ODA funded, and ISF programmes. GEMFA 2 is split into 5 Lots: Lot 1 - Global High Value > PS750K Lot 4 - Regional Lot. East Africa (all contract values) Lot 5 - Regional Lot. MENA & Afghanistan and Pakistan (all contract values) Lot 7 - Regional Lot. Western Balkans, Eastern Europe and Central Asia (all contract values) Lot 8 - Global Low Value
