UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The British Council contracted information technology services from TIVIT Colombia Tercerizacion de Procesos Servicios y Tecnologia SAS. The procurement is described as outsourced IT services, but the published scope does not break this down into particular systems, support functions, deliverables or service levels. The work is delivered in Colombia. The named supplier is based in Bogotá. The British Council is the buyer, and the procurement covers a single lot. This requirement is relevant to IT services providers with the capacity to deliver outsourced technology services for the British Council in Colombia; suppliers focused on other locations or unrelated services may find it outside their market.

The procurement is complete and the contract is active. The British Council used a limited competition below the applicable threshold. TIVIT Colombia Tercerizacion de Procesos Servicios y Tecnologia SAS was selected for the single lot. The contract was signed on 25 September 2026 and runs from 28 September 2026 to 28 October 2030. Its stated gross value is £206,000. The award is recorded as active, and the contract remains active. No award evaluation criteria or supplier eligibility requirements are set out in the published procurement details, so the basis for selection beyond the limited competition route cannot be described.

This award shows that the British Council has bought outsourced IT services for delivery in Colombia through a limited competition, with a large technology-services supplier selected. A business seeking to compete for a similar requirement would need credible capability in providing outsourced IT services in Colombia and sufficient organisational capacity to deliver the service over a multi-year contract. Providers with relevant experience serving international organisations or comparable buyers may be well placed to demonstrate that capability, although no particular technical specialisms, certifications, staffing levels or service standards are stated here. The commercial evidence is specific to the British Council’s IT outsourcing requirement in Colombia; it does not establish demand for other technology work or locations.
