Description

The Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office (FCDO) has estate property around the world (including the United Kingdom) and operates in over 280 different locations. The estate comprises Embassies & High Commissions (anything from a stand-alone, freehold building on a secure compound, to a fitted-out leased office in a multi-occupied, high-rise building), visa offices, Residences for Heads of Post and residential buildings for diplomats. Additionally, there are individual "legacy" properties such as churches, cemeteries, etc.

The FCDO has a financial reporting requirement (IFRS), supported by HM Treasury Government Financial Reporting Manual, to revalue the Estate's assets to ensure they are well managed, correctly recorded and accurately valued in the annual accounts.

The Estates, Security and Network Directorate (ESND) of the FCDO, on behalf of the Secretary of State for Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Affairs, requires valuations, inspection and rent ceiling assessments of the FCDO Estate within the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) region and, other Government departments, if required.

The scope of this procurement includes valuation and inspection services of the FCDO Estate. The Successful Supplier will also be required to provide impairment valuations, rent ceiling assessments and ad-hoc consultancy services where requested.
