Summary of the contracting process

The University of East Anglia has awarded a procurement contract for an annual subscription to a database of management and business journals. This tender, classified under CPV codes 22211000 (Journals) and 48610000 (Database systems), underwent a direct procurement method—specifically, a single tender action below the threshold. With the procurement stage now complete, the contract's official award date is 2nd September 2024, and the contract period will run from 1st October 2024 to 30th September 2026. The delivery location for this contract is Norwich, NR4 7TJ, England, and the final tender deadline was 29th August 2024. The awarded supplier, Emerald Publishing Limited, is an SME based in Leeds, England.

This tender presents a significant opportunity for businesses specialising in database systems and academic publishing. SMEs in the field of management and business journals, particularly those with robust digital platforms and comprehensive journal libraries, stand to benefit from such partnerships. Given the duration and nature of the subscription, companies that can offer expansive and high-quality journal databases will find this an excellent avenue for growth and increased visibility within academic institutions. The procurement process's use of direct procurement may favour niche players who can provide specialised and dedicated services tailored to academic needs.
