Summary of the contracting process

The British Council’s Iraq operation procured printing services for course books and related printed materials. The work covers printing, binding, finishing, packaging and delivery, with the books intended for distribution across Iraqi cities and selected districts. This is a service requirement for suppliers able to provide the finished printed materials and arrange their delivery within Iraq.

The procurement is complete and the contract was awarded to North Lake Company. It used a below-threshold procedure. The contract was signed on 1 October 2026 and runs from 5 October 2026 to 4 October 2027. Its value is USD 61,200. The procurement was organised as one lot. The available information does not set out evaluation criteria or a separate award date.

For suppliers considering similar future work for the British Council in Iraq, relevant capabilities include producing course books and related printed materials, managing binding and finishing, packaging orders, and delivering across Iraqi cities and selected districts. Experience in the complete production and delivery chain would be relevant to this requirement. The award to a small or medium-sized supplier indicates that a business of that classification has delivered the contract, but the procurement does not set out specific accreditations, production capacity or experience thresholds.
