## Summary

The British Council, a public authority within the sub-central government category, has concluded the procurement process for providing digital learning materials focused on English in the workplace context in Colombia. This open procedure tender, titled "AME-563 Tender for digital learning materials for English in the Workplace (Colombia)," aimed to enhance language skills crucial for professional environments. The procurement, begun with the tender notice published on 20 March 2025, culminated in awarding the contract on 8 July 2025. Richmond SAS was selected as the supplier, with the award valued at approximately £520,377 gross. The contract period is set to start on 30 July 2025, with possibilities for extension by an additional 12 months, indicating a potential end by 22 July 2029. This initiative underscores the strategic deployment of English learning resources under an open and competitive procurement model, suitable for education and e-learning industry sectors.

The tender offers substantial growth opportunities for companies specialising in e-learning services, educational content, and digital platforms tailored to workplace learning. Businesses capable of developing interactive, multi-level English courses, complete with user engagement tools like self-assessment and progress tracking, would be well-positioned. The British Council's emphasis on quality criteria such as social value, academic offerings, and effective methodology suggests that suppliers with innovative solutions in virtual education, particularly those able to integrate hard and soft skill development, can find lucrative growth opportunities. Small and medium-sized enterprises, especially those with a track record of flexibility and innovation, are encouraged to leverage their capabilities in such strategic partnerships, reaching a significant user base in Colombia's educational landscape.

## Notice

The selected provider will work on delivering professional services for the provision of virtual English learning materials for a programme with a specialised focus on workplace contexts, aimed at strengthening the language skills necessary to communicate effectively in professional environments. Additionally, the programme seeks to develop hard skills (such as managing and participating in meetings, negotiation, sales, presentations, and time management) and soft skills (such as leadership, decision-making, teamwork, and assertive communication). In this context, the provision of virtual English learning materials, aimed at young adults in workplace settings, must include content for a multi-level course featuring activities in grammar, vocabulary, pronunciation, and the development of the four key skills: reading, listening, writing, and speaking. Furthermore, the materials must offer review and practice activities that reinforce these contents throughout the units, as well as comprehensive teaching guides for delivering the student book lessons and a clear scope and sequence. In addition, the materials should include interactive exercises, videos, self-assessment tools. It is a plus if the platform can track student progress and provides online diagnostic tests to assess progress. The platform must also incorporate continuous assessment strategies, regular progress reports, and specialised technical support. The services covered by this invitation will be formalised through a framework agreement between the selected provider and the British Council, with a term of up to three (3) years and an estimated maximum budget, without this implying an obligation to fully utilise the total budget. Specific activities will be defined through individual service orders, according to the programme's needs, thus ensuring the effective and timely implementation of the contracted services.
