## Summary

The British Council is actively seeking a comprehensive Global Event Management Platform through an open tender process, titled "RFP - UK_876," which is currently at the Tender stage. This procurement is designed to streamline the management of in-person, hybrid, and virtual events, addressing the need for standardisation across various departments and locations. The tender, under the classification of event services and cultural event organisation services, is intended for services to be delivered in the United Kingdom. Interested parties should note that the deadline for enquiries is set for 5 January 2026, while tender submissions are due by 19 January 2026. The initial contract term begins on 13 February 2026 and extends through 12 February 2027, with potential renewals for up to three additional years.

This tender presents a significant opportunity for businesses specialising in event management software, particularly those with capabilities to support multi-format events across international boundaries. With a contract value of up to £180,000, this opportunity is particularly suitable for small and medium enterprises (SMEs) that can demonstrate robust methodologies, meet mandatory requirements, and deliver both functional and non-functional requirements as outlined by the British Council. Companies that can provide innovative solutions to enhance the British Council's event management processes will find this tender a platform for substantial business growth and market expansion.

## Notice
