## About this tender

### REGION - Latin America (Mexico)

Be aware that there are embedded documents in the excel RFQ. If you cannot access them on a Mac, try using a PC.

The Foreign and Commonwealth Office (the Authority), represented by the British Embassy in Mexico City, seeks to appoint one Service Supplier to provide a technical investigation on Beneficial Ownership data and its potential use in improving transparency in public procurement.

The work will be undertaken under the supervision of the Global Digital Marketplace Programme's Latin America Regional team (Product and Delivery manager) with the support from the Anti-Corruption, Digitalisation & Competition Policy Unit at the British Embassy in Mexico City, through regular planning and review meetings with the delivery partner to ensure that the work plans align with the programme vision and objectives, and review progress against these.

The deliverables for this phase of the project will deliver alongside phase 2:

1.1. A scoping study outlining the needs and opportunities for linking existing procurement systems (such as Procura MÃ©xico) with Beneficial Ownership data, so that this data can be used to reduce opportunities for corruption and/or conflicts of interest.

1.2. The project will provide a technical analysis identifying recommendations and next steps for building a usable product (or products) for the integration of Beneficial Ownership transparency in public procurement systems.

This might include:

-Suggestions and designs for open APIs for existing data;

-proposals for data submission tools or new modules for existing

tools;

-proposals related to privacy and identifiers or

-any other relevant next steps.

The primary beneficiaries of this project will be the Mexican Government Beneficial Ownership Working Group and the Open Government Partnership, whose work focuses on this area of development.

A final report, both in English and Spanish, with key recommendations will be expected to be presented to the GDMP team as part of the knowledge transfer and handover at the end of the present engagement.

This investigation will provide a further clarity on the steps required to begin work on a Beneficial Ownership register and the use of the Beneficial Ownership Data Standard (BODS) in procurement transparency.
