UK4 - Tender Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The British Council is seeking event management services for its Malaysia Higher Education Week 2027. The work is to be led by a Malaysia-based event management consultant and covers a series of education and alumni engagement events. The supplier will manage the events as part of the British Council’s higher education programme in Malaysia. The service falls within event services and is delivered in Malaysia.

The buyer invited offers through an open competition under a below-threshold procedure. The tender set a submission deadline of 17 November 2026 at 18:59 UTC. The contract period runs from 4 December 2026 to 3 December 2027, with an option for a further extension of up to 12 months based on performance. The stated maximum value is £50,000 including VAT. There is one lot. Evaluation places 40% on commercial pricing and 60% on quality: relevant experience and market knowledge (20%), quality (20%), methodology and approach (15%), and sustainability and inclusivity (5%).

This opportunity is best suited to an event management consultant based in Malaysia with relevant experience and knowledge of the local education market. Suppliers should be able to plan and manage a series of education and alumni engagement events, and present a credible delivery methodology. The evaluation gives substantial weight to experience, quality and approach, so bidders will need to show how their expertise translates into reliable event delivery. Sustainability and inclusivity also form part of the assessment. The scope is a defined programme of events rather than a general event-services requirement, making relevant higher education and alumni engagement experience especially pertinent. The buyer also assesses the commercial offer, so suppliers need a pricing approach that supports delivery of the full event series.
