<p>At the time of Adam Smith international's (ASI’s) voluntary withdrawal from DFID
procurements in January 2017, our position made it clear that ASI, along with all
other suppliers, will only be eligible to bid on future funding if they were able
to demonstrate their ability to adhere to the high standards of integrity expected
from government contractors, whilst delivering the best results for the world’s poorest
and value for money for UK taxpayers.</p><p> </p><p>As of February 2018, following
more than a year of voluntary withdrawal from procurement, ASI resumed bidding for
work with HMG. DFID is legally obliged to consider all bids from ASI in full compliance
with the Procurement Regulations, and we do so in accordance with the fair and transparent
tender requirements that were advertised, as is the case with any bidder.</p>
