The Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office (FCDO) is inviting tenders for a contract to provide internet infrastructure and service provision at the British Embassy in Baghdad.
The required data transfer rate is 1 Gigabit per second (Gbps) of contended internet bandwidth, shared across the Embassy’s 149 residential pods and 19 communal areas. The internet service provider (ISP) must provide a 24/7 English-speaking service desk and ensure resolution of issues within a prompt timeframe.
