Summary of the contracting process

The Foreign Commonwealth and Development Office (FCDO) is currently engaged in a procurement process for various services across the Asia Pacific region. The most recent tender update, dated 3rd December 2025, involves the Asia Pacific Regional Benefits Manager role, classified under administrative healthcare services, with a total tender value of £6,500,000. This procurement process is currently at the tender stage, with amendments adjusting the scope and value since its initial publication on 20th February 2025. The FCDO, headquartered in London but operating in Singapore, is leveraging selective procurement methods, including competitive procedures with negotiations, to select suitable suppliers. The physical delivery locations extend across multiple countries in the Asia Pacific region, including Singapore, Hong Kong, and Malaysia, among others.

This procurement process represents significant growth opportunities, particularly for businesses in the healthcare services industry with a focus on brokerage and insurance offerings across multiple jurisdictions. The tender is well-suited for firms possessing a Broker’s Licence for operations across the specified Asian countries, enabling them to provide comprehensive medical brokerage services to FCDO's locally employed staff. As the tender includes long-term contract options and potential extensions, businesses have the potential for stable revenue streams, making it an attractive prospect for companies with strategic capabilities in multi-country service provision. Suppliers with expertise in health insurance services and experience in handling complex regional requirements will find this opportunity particularly beneficial.
