Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Runshaw College procured a comprehensive, modern Student Record System (SRS) to replace its existing platform and support the next phase of the college’s digital transformation. The requirement is for a software package suite and associated products and services supporting student records and related college operations. The buyer is Runshaw College, based on Langdale Road in Leyland, England. Delivery is associated with Runshaw College’s requirements in the United Kingdom and potentially wider locations. This is primarily a technology supply opportunity for providers of education-sector information systems, student administration platforms, implementation services and related software support. The requirement is classified as goods, with the focus on replacing and modernising the college’s core student records capability.

The procurement has been completed and awarded following an open procedure. The tender closed on 6 September 2026, and the award was made on 9 September 2026 to Tribal Education. The awarded value is £428,527, compared with an estimated procurement value of £250,000. The contract runs from 7 September 2026 to 5 September 2031. Runshaw College is the buyer and Tribal Education is the selected supplier. The process was presented as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises. The award is active, and the contract covers the Student Record System requirement and related products and services. Evaluation was conducted through the open procurement procedure for the specified software requirement.

This procurement demonstrates substantial demand from a further-education college for a modern student records platform capable of replacing an established system and supporting wider digital transformation. Suppliers are well placed if they provide education-focused student information systems, understand college administration and student lifecycle processes, and can deliver a comprehensive software suite rather than a narrow standalone tool. Credible competitors would need the capability to manage migration from a current platform, integrate the new system with surrounding college technology, support implementation and maintain reliable service over a long-term operating relationship. Experience delivering comparable systems in education, strong product development and support capacity, and the ability to work with a college’s operational users would strengthen a future response. The opportunity was identified as suitable for SMEs.
