Summary of the contracting process

The University of Sussex has completed its procurement process for a three-year contract for Panopto licences, indicating a focus on the industry-specific software package category. This tender falls under the services procurement category and was executed through a selective procurement method as a call-off from a framework agreement. The procurement process concluded with the award stage, which was finalised on 27th June 2025, with the award active from 4th June 2025. The services are to be delivered in the South East region of the United Kingdom, with the contract period lasting from 21st June 2025 to 20th June 2028. The contract was valued at £327,163.

This procurement provides substantial opportunities for businesses involved in delivering industry-specific software solutions, particularly those with experience in frameworks. While the tender was not specifically suited for SMEs or VCSEs, large-scale companies with the capability to provide comprehensive licencing solutions like Academia Limited, the awarded supplier, are well-positioned to benefit. Engaging in such contracts not only allows businesses to showcase their expertise in software solutions but also to forge strong relationships with educational institutions such as the University of Sussex, potentially leading to more strategic partnerships in the Higher Education sector.
