This procurement falls under the category of research and development services and related consultancy services, with a total value of £23,000. The procurement method is an open procedure, and the tender period concluded on 28 January 2018, with the contract commencing on 8 February 2018 and running until 31 March 2018. This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses focused on low-emission vehicle technologies, research and consultancy services, particularly those with experience in public transport systems. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community and social enterprises (VCSEs) are encouraged to engage, as the FCO aims to identify potential commercial opportunities and facilitate UK private sector involvement in the development and implementation of sustainable transport solutions in Mexico. Companies with expertise in electric, hybrid, and Euro VI diesel vehicle solutions, as well as operational consulting for transport systems, will be particularly well-suited to compete for this contract. ## Notice The Foreign and Commonwealth Office (FCO), wishes to implement year 2 (FY 17-18) Cross Whitehall Prosperity Fund non ODA activity in Mexico entitled "Future Cities". The Service Supplier will conduct clear, robust and evidenced recommendations for a key Mexican city to create the conditions for feasible and self-sustaining implementation of low emission vehicles in public and private transport sector sub-segments. The implementation of this strategy will identify potential commercial opportunities and areas for UK private sector engagement. Additional information: A report which details the technical, operational, environmental, financial and other key aspects of the different bus configurations and their efficiency when considered for public transport operations in the Monterrey metropolitan area. Buses studied should be electric, hybrid or diesel (Euro VI, EPA16 or higher). ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Contracts Finder | | Latest notice | https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/f0711057-e641-43c8-863a-00944147f147 | | Notice type | Award Notice | | Procurement type | Standard | | Procurement category | Services | | Procurement method | Open | | Procurement method details | Open procedure (above threshold) | | Tender suitability | SME, VCSE | | Awardee scale | Large | | All stages | Tender, Award | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 8 Feb 2018 | | Submission deadline | 28 Jan 2018 | | Future notice date | Not specified | | Award date | 8 Feb 2018 | | Contract period | 9 Feb 2018 - 31 Mar 2018 | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | £23,000 | | Lots value | Not specified | | Awards value | £21,526 | | Contracts value | Not specified | ## Status | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender status | Complete | | Lots status | Not specified | | Awards status | Active | | Contracts status | Not specified | ## Buyer | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Main buyer | FOREIGN & COMMONWEALTH OFFICE | | Locality | LONDON | | Post town | Not specified | | Postcode | SW1 | | Country | Not specified | | ITL 1 | Not specified | | ITL 2 | Not specified | | ITL 3 | Not specified | | Local authority | Not specified | | Electoral ward | Not specified | | Westminster constituency | Not specified | | Delivery location | Not specified | ## Supplier | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Number of suppliers | 1 | | Supplier names | WRI MEXICO | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 73 - Research and development services and related consultancy services ### Codes - 73000000 - Research and development services and related consultancy services ## Release History - 8 Feb 2018 at 22:44 - Award - Award Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/f0711057-e641-43c8-863a-00944147f147 - 8 Feb 2018 at 22:35 - TenderAmendment - Tender Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/59715b4c-a410-4eb3-bb61-5fb2a8738fd1 - 26 Jan 2018 at 20:31 - TenderAmendment - Tender Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/59715b4c-a410-4eb3-bb61-5fb2a8738fd1 - 24 Jan 2018 at 16:40 - TenderAmendment - Tender Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/59715b4c-a410-4eb3-bb61-5fb2a8738fd1 - 18 Jan 2018 at 20:33 - Tender - Tender Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/59715b4c-a410-4eb3-bb61-5fb2a8738fd1 ## Documents - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/f0711057-e641-43c8-863a-00944147f147 8th February 2018 - Awarded contract notice on Contracts Finder - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/59715b4c-a410-4eb3-bb61-5fb2a8738fd1 8th February 2018 - Opportunity notice on Contracts Finder - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/Attachment/5d7e80b5-aa5d-4611-976e-dd734bf42d4a Evaluation Criteria - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/Attachment/68d33f27-2b7d-46c6-8a29-51adb97ad6d5 Terms of Reference - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/Attachment/d60362f1-2d47-45d0-86d4-df33e43c48a6 Duty of Care acceptance - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/Attachment/1280582a-849a-4e38-bf15-327278cb8bf0 Prices and rates template - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/Attachment/c6d7d1df-f9fd-4597-9687-54718123ca72 ITT - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/Attachment/50062009-cdcc-4d5a-a899-27c5ca666c07 Background information - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/Attachment/d14d1d1c-f87f-4149-a0a6-396f6652d661 Clarifications ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
