Summary of the contracting process

The British Council, a notable sub-central government authority based in London, has completed a procurement process for the supply and delivery of stationery to its Jordan office. This contract was awarded through an open competition under the legal framework of UKPGA 2023/54. The procurement involved goods within the stationery industry, with delivery slated for Jordan. The award process was completed, and the contract was actively signed on 12th November 2025, with a completion period extending from 1st December 2025 to 30th November 2028, with a possible 12-month extension. The contract's value in GBP is structured below the threshold, emphasising cost-effective, high-quality supply.

This tender presents a significant opportunity for businesses specialising in office supplies, particularly SMEs, as seen with the successful supplier, Mahari Establishment for Office Equipment, based in Jordan. Companies well-versed in offering reliable, cost-effective, and timely delivery of stationery products can benefit from pursuing similar contracts. The process was competitive, with multiple bidders, and criteria focused on commercial viability, quality, and social value. This aligns well with businesses aiming to expand their market footprint in the Middle East through substantial government contracts like this one facilitated by a prominent international organisation.
