## Summary

The Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office (FCDO) sought to enhance public financial management in Ghana’s health sector, aiming to boost transparency, accountability, and the delivery of strategic health priorities. The procurement process was initiated as a tender and involved a direct award to Palladium International Limited due to their previous involvement in a related USAID programme that was abruptly terminated. The contract was active from 21st July 2025 to 31st March 2026, with financial consultancy services provided across Ghana. The procurement method was direct, attributed to the technical reasons for single supplier involvement, without alternatives being viable. The procurement’s legal basis falls under the UKPGA 2023 legislation, with activities primarily focused in London, UK and Ghana.

This procurement offers significant growth opportunities for service providers specialising in financial management consultancy, particularly those with expertise in international health sectors and public financial management functions. Businesses with experience in delivering complex international projects and capability in managing transparency and accountability improvements in governmental settings will likely be well-suited to similar future tenders. The involvement of Palladium International, a large-scale supplier, underlines the potential for collaboration and adaptation to unforeseen programmatic changes, presenting pathways for businesses to expand their influence within public sector procurement and international development projects.

## Notice

The outcome being sought is to improve financial management, transparency and accountability that enables delivery of the Government of Ghana's strategic priorities for the health sector, increases self-reliance and supports increased domestic resource mobilisation. While health is the primary focus, other social sectors will be integrated into activities where possible to maximise impact across social sector financial management. This contract is to continue work that had begun implementation under an FCDO Delegated Cooperation Agreement (DCA) with USAID signed in November 2024. The DCA provided FCDO funding for the implementation of the USAID Promoting Results and Outcomes through Policy and Economic Levers (PROPEL) Health programme's public financial management component in Ghana, delivered by Palladium. The PROPEL programme was paused by USAID in January 2025 and subsequently terminated. Specifically, this contract is for Palladium to continue implementation of the prior workplan activities up to March 2026.

### Procurement Information
