## Summary

The British Council has recently awarded a contract for the tender titled "2022_Insights - Transnational Education in Egypt: Analysis of the operating environment, delivery models, and partnership opportunities for UK providers." This procurement falls under the research and development services and related consultancy services category. The contract, valued at £45,000 GBP, was awarded to The World Universities Insights Ltd. The procurement method used was an open procedure (below threshold). The contract period is from 23rd January 2023 to 28th April 2023.

This tender presents an opportunity for businesses, particularly in the research and consultancy services sector, to engage with the British Council. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) are particularly suitable for this opportunity. Businesses interested in providing detailed research on the higher education environment in Egypt and partnership opportunities with the UK should consider participating in this tender process. The project aims to gather information relevant to UK education and policy-making sectors, offering a chance for businesses to contribute to educational strategies and develop partnerships between the UK and Egypt.

## Notice

We invite bidders to propose a detailed and effective methodology that best meets our research objectives within the outlined timelines and budget. The overall aim of the research is to understand the operating environment for transnational education (TNE) at the higher education level in Egypt. The British Council is interested in gaining a deeper understanding of the TNE operating environment in Egypt at the higher education level, including relevant policies, student demand, current and potential scale, financial feasibility, competition, and likely future developments in this area. The outputs of this research will be used to provide reliable and up-to-date information to the UK education sector as well as helping the British Council to better design policies to support UK universities' activities in this area. The research will also assist policy makers in Egypt to assess the impact of the TNE regulations introduced in 2018, whether they are achieving the intended outcomes and whether additional changes are needed to maximise partnership opportunities between the UK and Egypt. We anticipate this research will include both desk research (including reviewing government policies, universities' descriptions of their existing programmes and relevant third-party research) and primary research with government officials, education providers, business partners and other relevant stakeholders. It is possible that some relevant information will only be available in Arabic. Additional information: Bidders should register on the British Council's e-Tendering portal In-Tend https://in-tendhost.co.uk/britishcouncil/aspx/Home in order to take part in the tender process. Once registered, bidders must log-in to the website where they can view the project and access the bidders pack and submit their return. Bidders will also be required to demonstrate their capability and 'means of proof' will be required. These conditions are outlined in the RFP.
