Summary of the contracting process

Coventry University has completed a public procurement process for the renewal of their subscription to the Mintel full text database of market research reports. This tender, classified under the industry category "Software package and information systems" (CPV: 48000000), focused on acquiring services. The contract, awarded through a direct procurement method on 27th November 2024, entails a one-year subscription starting on 1st December 2024 and ending on 30th November 2025. Situated in Coventry (postcode CV1 5FB), the university made a single tender action due to the contract's value being below the threshold, resulting in a GBP 34,810 award to Mintel Group Ltd, a London-based SME located at 4 Playhouse Yard, EC4V 5EX.

This tender presents a significant business growth opportunity, especially for SMEs that specialise in software and information systems. Since the procurement process was limited to a single tender, businesses that can provide niche, high-quality services similar to those of Mintel Group Ltd stand a better chance at securing such contracts in the future. The nature of this contract makes it ideal for companies with strengths in offering specialised market research databases, particularly those looking to expand their client base within the higher education sector.
