## Summary

The British Council sought a venue in Kigali, Rwanda, for computer-based examinations. The requirement was for organisations able to provide suitable exam premises; the procurement is categorised as services. The buyer’s description directs suppliers to the request for proposal for the detailed venue requirements. This is a venue-hire opportunity, rather than a request to supply computer equipment or examination software.

The British Council invited proposals through a below-threshold, open competition under the Procurement Act 2023. The tender reached the invitation-to-offer stage, but the procurement was subsequently cancelled. The sole lot had an estimated gross value of £32,696. The proposed contract period ran from 1 November 2026 to 31 October 2028. The submission deadline was 23 September 2026 at 20:30 UTC. The lot’s stated evaluation basis was scoring, with a maximum of 100 points. The cancellation reason given was that the business already had an examination venue and would continue with its existing supplier.

This requirement was suited to venue operators in Kigali with premises capable of hosting computer-based examinations. Suppliers would need to demonstrate that their facilities could meet the buyer’s requirements set out in its request for proposal. The scale was a single-location venue-hire service for the British Council, rather than a multi-site or equipment-supply contract. The stated cancellation reason indicates that the buyer chose to continue using its existing venue supplier, so the opportunity did not proceed to a new contract.
