Summary of the contracting process

The University of Plymouth has completed a procurement process for "Pensions Support", classified under the pension fund consultancy services industry (CPV code: 66523000). The contract, valued at £29,800 GBP, was awarded directly to ISIO Group Limited through a single tender action below the threshold. The contract period starts on 20th September 2024 and ends on 1st June 2025. This procurement was specific to services required in the South West region of the United Kingdom. The University of Plymouth acted as the buyer, with their procurement team handling the process.

This tender offers significant growth opportunities for businesses specialising in pension fund consultancy services, particularly those capable of delivering comprehensive support for large-scale institutions such as universities. While the current tender was awarded directly, similar future contracts could present lucrative opportunities for consultancy firms of various scales, albeit this particular procurement was not aimed at SMEs or VCSEs. Firms that can demonstrate expertise in pension management and consultancy would be well-positioned to compete in similar procurement processes in the higher education sector.
