Summary of the contracting process

The Foreign Commonwealth and Development Office (FCDO) has completed the procurement process for the Asia Pacific Regional Benefits Management (APAC RBM) project, aimed at improving benefits management in the region by selecting a broker as a regional partner for healthcare plans over a potential five-year period. The procurement was conducted through a competitive procedure with negotiation, culminating in a contract signed on 16th December 2025, valued at £6,500,000. This contract is categorised under services in the medical insurance sector, intended for various locations across the Asia Pacific, including Singapore, Hong Kong, Indonesia, and others. The awarding process concluded with Aon Singapore Pte. Ltd. as the selected supplier, with the project’s initial phase starting from January 2026, subject to potential extensions until January 2031.

This tender provides substantial business growth opportunities, particularly for companies specialising in health and administrative insurance services with regional expertise in Asia Pacific. Firms with strong capabilities in data management and compliance, as well as those skilled in competitive pricing and comprehensive regional account management, stand to gain by engaging in similar future opportunities. The project demonstrates the potential for significant cost savings from the second year of implementation and emphasises the need for a provider adept at delivering efficiency in benefits management and adhering to rigorous data protection standards.
