UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The British Council procured services to provide a venue in Melaka, Malaysia, for ACCA computer-based testing (CBT). The requirement is an ACCA CBT Venue Hire Agreement, covering the rental of premises suitable for delivering computer-based examinations. The work is categorised as building rental or sale services (CPV 70310000). The British Council is the buying organisation, with its registered address in London. Delivery takes place in Melaka. The procurement concerns a single requirement rather than multiple separately described lots. It is relevant to venue operators, commercial property providers and facilities businesses able to provide an appropriate examination location in Melaka for the British Council’s testing activity.

This procurement has been awarded and the tender is complete. The British Council used a limited competition below the relevant threshold. Unitele Multimedia Sdn Bhd was awarded the contract for the single lot, with an award recorded as active. The award date was 9 March 2026 and the contract was signed on that date. The contract runs from 1 August 2026 to 31 July 2028. Its value is £51,336 excluding tax and £55,442 including tax. The contract is active and the supplier is based in Cyberjaya, Malaysia. The procurement was evaluated through the limited-competition route; the available outcome records identify the selected supplier and contract terms but do not set out separate quality or price weightings.

This award demonstrates a defined requirement from the British Council for a dedicated computer-based testing venue in Melaka over a multi-year period. A credible future competitor would need to control or operate suitable premises in the city, with enough capacity and an environment appropriate for formal computer-based examinations. The venue would need to support the practical delivery of testing rather than general office or meeting use, including reliable facilities for candidates and the British Council’s examination operations. Businesses most closely aligned are established venue-hire providers, commercial property operators and facilities companies with local Malaysian delivery capability. The successful supplier is classified as a large organisation, indicating that scale and operational reliability may be relevant when this requirement returns to market.
