## Summary

The Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office (FCDO) has completed the procurement process for the purchase of a fleet vehicle for the British Embassy in Manila. This procurement, under the title "Purchase of Fleet Vehicle for British Embassy Manila," falls within the industry category of "Passenger cars." The vehicle will be delivered to a location in China. The procurement, which employed a limited competition method due to being below the threshold, was awarded to MG Gateway Mantrade Corp. The contract commenced on 1st August 2025 and is set to end on 31st March 2026.

This tender presents business opportunities, particularly for suppliers specialising in automotive manufacturing or distribution, to engage with government entities and expand their international reach. Firms with available stock or those capable of quick distribution channels would find this opportunity beneficial, as the procurement emphasises the immediate availability of goods. Companies looking to strengthen their foothold in supplying government agencies or those interested in cross-border supply contract experience would be well-suited for similar tenders in the future.

## Notice

The British Embassy Manila intends to replace the current Discovery 5 with a new vehicle. Last fiscal year, the Starex was decommissioned and, due to limited availability of vans, was replaced with an SUV. As a result, the Post has been operating with only one van available for staff transport in Manila. For the current fiscal year, Post will be acquiring a replacement van for the Discovery 5, thereby restoring the fleet to two vans as previously maintained. The necessary budget has been approved, and suppliers with available stock have been identified.
