The brief

The Authority has a requirement for the collation, checking and distribution of worldwide Hardship and Cost of Living information for our Posts and overseas Missions.

The Hardship element is more commonly referred to as a Location Allowance.

The data gathered in this exercise will be used to calculate the Hardship element of Diplomatic Service Allowance (DSA) and Cost of Living Allowance (COLA) that the FCDO provides to its staff serving overseas.

NB, the contract value has been withheld due to commercial sensitivity.

The value of the contract is above OJEU threshold.
