The procurement process, currently in the Award stage, follows an open procedure above threshold. The contract period is set to commence on 1 March 2021 and will last until 28 February 2023, with an allocated budget of £150,000. Interested parties should note that the tender pack is expected to be published early in the new year following the completion of a non-disclosure agreement (NDA), which must be returned by those wishing to participate. The deadline for submitting tenders is 8 February 2021. This tender represents an excellent opportunity for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) within the software development and IT services sector, particularly those with expertise in creating learning management systems. Businesses that can offer innovative digital solutions for education and are capable of providing comprehensive support and integration services will be well-poised to compete. This initiative not only supports the expansion of the British Council's digital offerings but also enables suppliers to align their products with a reputable organisation committed to quality customer service. ## Notice The British Council delivers high quality English language services to its customers, with face-to-face, online and remote learning options. In addition to its established network of Centres, Branches and Off-site locations, the British Council plans to expand it footprint via a more agile, flexible and efficient use of digital channels, with an easy in and easy out approach, following customer catchment areas, and thereby catering for our customer's increasing need for convenience. In order to take advantage of both new and existing business opportunities, the British Council needs to ensure it has a modern learning management system (LMS), that can be fully integrated into a unified eco-system. The LMS must be able to support and deliver on-line learning content and greater access to managing learning, all of which will help the organisation achieve its aspiration of placing the customer at the heart of everything we do. The British Council is publishing an NDA at this time, with the intention that we will publish the tender pack in the new year. Please note that British Council staff are mostly away from the office for the upcoming Christmas period, and so queries will be picked up w/c 4 January. In the meantime please complete and return the NDA, we will then be able to share the tender pack as soon as it is available. Additional information: Please register an account on our procurement portal in order to download and complete the NDA. Please note that there is limited team capacity over Christmas so queries will be picked up on 4th January. ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Contracts Finder | | Latest notice | https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/3d149b17-90b1-434d-8f0d-6ca19c592165 | | Notice type | Award Notice | | Procurement type | Standard | | Procurement category | Goods | | Procurement method | Open | | Procurement method details | Open procedure (above threshold) | | Tender suitability | SME | | Awardee scale | SME | | All stages | Tender, Award | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 15 Jul 2021 | | Submission deadline | 8 Feb 2021 | | Future notice date | Not specified | | Award date | 5 May 2021 | | Contract period | 31 May 2021 - 31 May 2023 | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | Not specified | | Lots value | Not specified | | Awards value | £150,000 | | Contracts value | Not specified | ## Status | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender status | Complete | | Lots status | Not specified | | Awards status | Active | | Contracts status | Not specified | ## Buyer | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Main buyer | BRITISH COUNCIL(THE) | | Locality | LONDON | | Post town | South West London | | Postcode | SW1A 2BN | | Country | England | | ITL 1 | TLI London | | ITL 2 | TLI3 Inner London - West | | ITL 3 | TLI35 Westminster and City of London | | Local authority | Westminster | | Electoral ward | St James's | | Westminster constituency | Cities of London and Westminster | | Delivery location | Not specified | ## Supplier | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Number of suppliers | 1 | | Supplier names | AGILE.NET | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 48 - Software package and information systems - 72 - IT services: consulting, software development, Internet and support ### Codes - 48000000 - Software package and information systems - 72000000 - IT services: consulting, software development, Internet and support ## Release History - 15 Jul 2021 at 09:03 - Award - Award Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/3d149b17-90b1-434d-8f0d-6ca19c592165 - 18 Dec 2020 at 16:07 - Tender - Tender Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/db8c5891-631c-4dc6-a940-78f06b7e9482 ## Documents - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/3d149b17-90b1-434d-8f0d-6ca19c592165 15th July 2021 - Awarded contract notice on Contracts Finder - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/db8c5891-631c-4dc6-a940-78f06b7e9482 18th December 2020 - Opportunity notice on Contracts Finder ## Notice URLs - https://in-tendhost.co.uk/britishcouncil/aspx/Home ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
