Summary of the contracting process

Furze Down School is procuring a managed IT services provision from a single supplier. The requirement falls within IT services, including consulting, software development, internet services and technical support, with software development identified as an additional area. The buying organisation is Furze Down School, based in Winslow, England. Delivery locations are listed across the United Kingdom, Europe, the Isle of Man, the Channel Islands, British Overseas Territories and the rest of the world, so suppliers should consider whether they can support a geographically broad service. This is a services opportunity intended to provide the school with an ongoing managed IT capability rather than a one-off supply of equipment.

The procurement has reached tender: the buyer invited offers using a restricted procedure. The deadline set for submissions was 29 September 2026 at 12:00 noon, British Summer Time. The contract period runs from 1 January 2027 to 31 December 2029. Its estimated value is £400,000. The opportunity is structured around appointing one supplier for the managed IT services provision. The published process identifies IT services and software development as the relevant work areas. Suppliers were expected to access the competition through the buyer’s specified supplier platform, using reference CA18418. The tender information does not set out an award weighting or other evaluation formula in the available procurement details.

This opportunity suits an established managed IT services provider able to act as a single supplier for a school customer. Relevant capability includes IT consulting, software development, internet-related services and technical support, with the classification also pointing specifically to software development services. Providers should be comfortable delivering an integrated service rather than only an isolated project, and should be able to support users and systems across the United Kingdom and the wider delivery locations listed for the requirement. The procurement is identified as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises, making it relevant to specialist SMEs as well as larger IT businesses with the breadth to coordinate the full service.
