UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The British Council is procuring services for an EnglishScore test code provider in Thailand. The requirement concerns implementation of a project in collaboration with Thailand’s Office of the Vocational Education Commission (OVEC), with the service classified as e-learning. The work is for the British Council in Thailand, while the buying organisation is the British Council, a public authority. The requirement is focused on providing and implementing English-language testing through an e-learning service rather than supplying physical goods or construction. Businesses relevant to this opportunity would therefore be providers of digital learning, online assessment or English testing services able to support delivery in Thailand and collaboration with a vocational education body.

The procurement has been completed and the contract awarded following a below-threshold limited competition. There was one completed lot. Chulalongkorn University Book Center was awarded the contract, with an active award and contract. The contract was signed on 30 June 2026 and runs from 1 July 2026 to 30 June 2027. Its gross value is THB 1,696,940. The process was evaluated through a limited competition rather than an open tender. The published outcome identifies e-learning services as the awarded requirement. The contract is active, and the award remains active; no cancellation or termination is recorded.

This outcome indicates demand from the British Council in Thailand for a supplier able to implement English-language testing through an e-learning service and support a project involving a national vocational education body. Competitors seeking similar work would need a credible digital learning or online assessment capability, with the ability to provide English testing and associated test-code services at institutional scale. Experience working with public-sector or education partners in Thailand would be relevant to the delivery context, as would the operational capacity to coordinate implementation with OVEC and the British Council. The selected supplier is a large Thai organisation, signalling the value of local scale and an established presence.
