Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process for Adobe licences was conducted by the Office for Students, based in Bristol, UK. This contract falls within the software package and information systems industry category, specifically targeting the South West region of the United Kingdom. The tender stage has been completed, with the contract awarded on 5th March 2026 to Academia Ltd. The contract period is set to start on 24th March 2026 and end on 23rd March 2027. Although the procurement method is not specified, it is described as a standard services process with a total contract value of £6,647.57.

This procurement provides a growth opportunity for businesses involved in software licensing and information systems. Given the Office for Students' focus, companies that specialise in educational or academic software solutions may find this contract beneficial. However, the suitability criteria indicate it is not particularly geared toward SMEs or VCSEs, thus favouring larger firms. With Academia Ltd awarded as the supplier, companies in similar domains can take advantage of the insights gained from this process to align their proposals with public sector expectations.
