Additional text

A Parent Company Guarantee (or similar guarantee) will be required. Full details will be set out in the Selection Questionnaire and the Invitation to Tender.

Payments will be made monthly in arrears after certification by the FCO of satisfactory service delivery.

A Selection Questionnaire (SQ) will be made available to all prospective Tenderers with the release of this OJEU notice. Those wishing to participate in this procurement must follow the procedure outlined in the attached Procurement Document. Tenderers should note that their completed SQs must be returned by 17:00 on 21st October 2019. The FCO envisages the appointment to the DPS of all Tenderers who meet the selection criteria, at this stage or during the lifetime of the DPS. The FCO envisages the award of Work Package One (and therefore provision of all services outlined in Section II.2.1 in the Asia Pacific region) to one DPS supplier. Tenderers are not required to have capabilities specifically in the Asia Pacific region to gain a place on the DPS.
While the FCO will review the financial standing of all Tenderers at the SQ stage, the FCO reserves the right to exclude any Tenderer from bidding for future contracts awarded through the DPS in the event that they subsequently fail to maintain the criteria relating to financial standing set out in the SQ.

If a group of suppliers wish to pre-qualify as a Joint Venture (JV) or create a Special Purpose Vehicle (SPV) to deliver the services, the proposed financial structure of the JV or SPV must be provided together with the financial details set out in the SQ for each of the parent companies.

The project is assessed to be unclassified but supplier's staff will be required to have security clearance. Staff should either have existing security clearance or be prepared to undergo UK Government clearance.

The Asia Pacific Contract duration will be 5 years with an option for up to 2 additional 12 month periods. The option to extend shall follow the same parameters established for the initial contract period, unless provisions, which are intended to change, are identified at tender stage. The FCO reserves to itself the right to exercise formal options for the extension of the Contract to include more of its properties in overseas locations and buildings.
The DPS is expected to have an initial duration of 10 years, with the option to extend at the authority's discretion.

The FCO reserves the right to abandon the procurement process and not award any contract; and/or to make whatever changes it sees fit to the procurement process.

The final contract shall be subject to English Law and the exclusive jurisdiction of the English courts.

Documentation is available from the FCO e-procurement portal, JAGGAER (https://fco.bravosolution.co.uk/web/login.html).

Registration is required and free of chargand takes approximately 10 minutes. Once registered, follow the on-screen instructions and navigate to project_3220 pqq_832 for full access
