Description
WFD wishes to establish a panel of specialist service providers as part of a framework to provide technical services from time to time to support WFD's capacity and capability as part of their global support. These services are expected to support WFD primarily as part of the Democratic Governance Centre of Expertise, which WFD is delivering in partnership with the FCDO. WFD have previously operated a framework for this service, which is due to expire on 31 March 2026. WFD are building on the learning from this framework to create an enhanced model of engagement with specialist expert partners who can support with WFD strategic objectives. Interested parties should note that the contractual delivery locations could be world wide, and this would be confirmed on a case-by-case basis for individual contracts, WFD are interested in service providers views on the establishment of a Dynamic Market (DM) which WFD may use from time to time for any opportunities that sit above a threshold value of £207,720 (this figure may change from time to time in alignment with the requirements of the Procurement Act 2023). WFD would also create a Preferred Supplier List (PSL) of interested service providers, that will run concurrently with the Dynamic Market and will be suitable for opportunities that fall below the threshold value. Service Providers will be able to elect to apply to one or both the Dynamic Market and the Preferred Supplier list. The current framework operates across 3 different lots: Lot 1: Political Economy Analysis Lot 2: Media Development and Media Freedom Lot 3: Rule of Law, Justice and Justice Sector Reform WFD would like to continue with these requirements as a minimum and may include additional requirements from time to time. WFD are seeking input from interested partners to: • gain initial supplier awareness, engagement and opinion. • provide confidence around viability of concept. • gain insight to the market possibilities and potential innovative solutions. • understand risks and issues not previously considered. • inform the Procurement Strategy and Commercial structure; and • gather feedback on the current framework and lessons that can be applied moving forward.
