Summary of the contracting process

The British Council initiated a public procurement process for the project titled "Thailand Bangkok SSQ Main Office, Siam Square, Remedial Work." This process falls under the construction industry category, specifically building construction work for school buildings, with a focus on retrofitting and rejuvenating an educational centre in Bangkok, Thailand. The open tender was active with a deadline for submissions on 23rd May 2025. The procurement method used was open competition, aimed below the threshold to ensure wide participation. The British Council acted as the buying organisation, and the project was valued at approximately £196,000 GBP. However, the tender has been marked as complete, with the award process leading to cancellation due to no submissions by the final deadline of 2nd June 2025.

This tender represents a significant opportunity for businesses in the construction industry, particularly those specialising in educational and institutional refurbishments, to expand their portfolio by engaging with a prominent international organisation like the British Council. Companies well-equipped for building construction and familiar with the Southeast Asian region's regulatory requirements would have been ideally suited to compete. Although this particular opportunity has concluded without award, similar future tenders could provide business growth potential through association with international projects and esteemed clientele.
