The procurement is in the planning update stage, with an intention to launch the framework to support cross-UK government security and resilience objectives. The framework will provide global access to qualified individuals and multidisciplinary teams for services like security, governance, justice, and defence support, funded through Official Development Assistance (ODA) and non-ODA sources. The procurement employs a competitive flexible procedure within the services industry category and includes a future notice date set for 24th September 2026. The planned contract period will span from 1st November 2027 to 31st October 2030, with potential extensions until 31st October 2035. This tender presents significant opportunities for business growth, particularly for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs), given the suitability criteria. The establishment of the framework allows for the engagement of diverse businesses capable of providing a blend of services including, but not limited to, strategic communications and cyber security. Businesses operating in the security, foreign affairs, and defence sectors would be well-suited to participate in this procurement, ensuring they are equipped to tender for call-off competitions under the main framework agreement. This engagement can offer businesses substantial expansion opportunities within international domains supported by large-scale government funding. ## Notice The Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office, acting on behalf of UK government, intends to establish the Security and Resilience Framework to support delivery of cross-UK government security and resilience objectives using both Official Development Assistance (ODA) and non-ODA funding.
