## Summary

The British Council procured comprehensive Design and Build services for relocating its main office in Madrid. The project covers a 650–683 square metre centre accommodating teaching, examinations and back-office functions. The appointed service includes project initiation and brief development; preliminary, concept, developed and detailed design with mechanical, electrical and plumbing coordination; pre-construction and fixed-price agreement; turnkey construction and fit-out; furniture, fixtures and equipment coordination, supply and installation; subcontractor management; and project close-out, certifications and aftercare. This is an architectural, construction, engineering and inspection services requirement. The work is for a new, accessible Madrid centre with suitable local demographics for teaching operations, following the planned sale of the British Council’s existing freehold property in Madrid.

The procurement is complete and was awarded to JONES LANG LASALLE SERVICES LIMITED, specifically its Spanish subsidiary, on 1 July 2026. The contract was signed on 25 August 2026. It used a direct award under the British Council’s umbrella contract with JLL, applying the master agreement’s terms and conditions; the stated rationale was a single supplier’s technical reasons. There was one completed lot. The award and contract value is €325,000 excluding VAT and €350,000 including VAT. The contract runs from 1 September to 31 December 2026, with one possible three-month extension, allowing a maximum end date of 31 March 2027. The requirement was above the relevant threshold and was evaluated through the direct-award route rather than competition.

This procurement indicates recurring demand from the British Council for end-to-end workplace relocation and fit-out delivery in international locations. A credible future supplier would need to combine architectural design, construction management and turnkey fit-out delivery under a single point of responsibility, rather than offer only one specialist service. Relevant capability includes coordinating MEP design, producing a developed design suitable for fixed-price construction, managing subcontractors, supplying and installing FF&E, and completing certifications, handover and aftercare. Experience delivering office or teaching-centre environments would be particularly relevant, including the ability to integrate teaching, examinations and administrative functions within a constrained commercial interior. Suppliers should also be able to work through framework or umbrella-contract arrangements and demonstrate the operational capacity to deliver a complete project in Madrid.
