Summary of the contracting process

Bath Spa University procured a student admissions system licence and integration for CAS Shield. The system supports university staff, international applicants and agents throughout student assessment and admissions, including Confirmation of Acceptance for Studies (CAS) allocation, visa updates and arrival information. Its purpose is to support international student conversion and compliance with UK Visas and Immigration requirements. This is educational software, delivered for use in the South West of England. The requirement combines access to the software with integration into the university’s admissions processes.

The procurement is complete and was awarded to Enroly Ltd. Bath Spa University used a direct award procedure. The award was made on 26 June 2023, following a submission deadline at 12:00 that day. The contract period ran from 2 October 2023 to 1 October 2024. The awarded contract value was £38,190. The stated requirement covers one student admissions system licence and integration; no separate lots or evaluation criteria are described. The published suitability information says the opportunity was not suitable for SMEs or voluntary, community and social enterprises.

For suppliers competing for a future requirement of this kind from Bath Spa University, the demonstrated need is a working student admissions platform for international recruitment, rather than a generic education software package. A credible supplier would need to provide CAS allocation, visa-status updates and arrival information, support the workflows of university staff, international applicants and agents, and integrate the system into admissions operations. The buyer’s stated purpose also makes support for international applicant conversion and UKVI compliance central to the offer. The selected supplier was Enroly Ltd, and the procurement was made by direct award; the available information does not establish detailed technical qualifications or evaluation criteria, so these should not be assumed as past requirements.
