Summary of the contracting process

The University of East Anglia (UEA) has recently completed a public procurement process to acquire overseas administrative payroll services for their regional office staff based in Southeast Asia. The tender, classified under payroll management services (CPV 79211110), was managed through a single tender action, direct procurement method, due to its below-threshold value. Key dates included the end of the tender period on 31 July 2024, the start of the contract on 1 August 2024, and the contract's conclusion on 31 July 2025. This procurement, completed on 27 August 2024, offers extensive details on location, services, and compliance requirements specific to Malaysia.

This tender offers substantial opportunities for businesses specialising in payroll management services, especially those already operating within, or looking to expand into, the Southeast Asian market. Large-scale service providers, such as Apex Point, who have been awarded this contract, are particularly well-suited given the requirement to navigate local statutory obligations like EPF, SOCSO, and EIS. Businesses equipped to provide comprehensive administrative payroll functions and able to meet stringent local regulatory demands can leverage such contracts to establish a foothold or expand their presence in the region.
