## About this tender

The UK’s Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office (FCDO) is seeking a supplier who can support the British High Commission in Dhaka (BHCD) in its application of Thinking and Working Politically (TWP) methods to maximise its impact in Bangladesh. The TWP Facility will support the UK’s objective of building state capacity in Bangladesh through modern partnerships. BHC Dhaka is shifting the approach of its development portfolio away from service delivery and towards system strengthening. A deeper understanding of political economy, institutions and support for local reform champions and processes will help to unlock system strengthening and deepen state capacity.

The supplier will provide a range of products and services to BHC Dhaka teams including (but not limited to):

- Political Economy Analysis and Institutional Analysis on-demand in specific sectors and policy design/policy delivery problems
- Support for Theory of Change workshops and sector strategies, with a specific focus on political economy and political feasibility
- Capacity-building for implementing partners of programmes on TWP including PEA and IA
- Regular engagement with implementing partners to deliver TWP, depending on the level of expertise

The route to market for this procurement opportunity is now finalised and will be through FCDO's existing Global Development Delivery (GDD) Framework, Lot No.14, which will be governed under PCR 2015 regulations. The communication channel against pqq\_1971 [fcdo.bravosolution.co.uk/go/34749209019B06B5B7B5](https://fcdo.bravosolution.co.uk/go/34749209019B06B5B7B5) shall cease to exist w.e.f. 09/01/2026. All future engagement with the Framework Suppliers until publication of ITT for this Tender will be through the existing Lot No.14 communication channel, which is available only to the existing Lot 14 suppliers.
