FCDO Services require suitably qualified Logistics Services partners to deliver end‑to‑end shipping and freight support for diplomatic and commercial consignments within the UK and internationally.

Services may be required on both an ad‑hoc basis and in accordance with pre‑defined schedules.

These elements will be defined as the requirement develops and through pre-market engagement and subsequent procurement documentation.

| 1 | Cargo handling and storage services, Support services for land, water and air transport, Post and courier services | Not published |
Benchmarked against retained Find a Tender procedures with CPV division 63. The category anchor is Cargo handling and storage services (63100000); this is a deliberately broad market comparator. The comparison is shown at several levels rather than pretending one company or region is always the best benchmark.
| Comparison set | Procedures | Reported bids per procedure | Named award suppliers | Price evidence |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Market: CPV division 63 | 935 | 3 median · 14.8 average (275 of 935 with a bid count) | 3.5 average (324 of 935 with named award suppliers) | Not published |
| Same buyer | 2 | Not published | Not published | Not published |
| Similar published value (0.5×–2×) | 42 | 133 median · 133 average (2 of 42 with a bid count) | 20 average (2 of 42 with named award suppliers) | Not published |
“Reported bids” is an official aggregate, sometimes reported per lot; it is the closest available competition measure. “Named award suppliers” are winners, not all applicants.
Not enough comparable procedures currently publish both a GBP tender value and a usable lowest-valid-bid value to calculate a responsible price-reduction benchmark. Tenderline deliberately does not infer a saving from named award suppliers or from missing award values.
No planning milestones published.
No linked framework, prior procurement or reprocurement published.
Diagnostic view. “Not published” means this current release does not provide a value.
