Summary of the contracting process

The University of Worcester has completed a public procurement process to purchase a new Web Content Management System under the title "UWQ172 Web Content Management System - AWARD." The procurement, classified under the industry category of system, storage, and content management software packages, follows a restricted procedure. The process commenced with a tender period ending on 21st June 2018, and the resulting contract, valued at £145,000, runs from 1st September 2018 to 30th August 2026. The procurement involves multiple delivery locations, including the UK, British Overseas Territories, Channel Islands, Europe, Isle of Man, and other global regions. The buyer for this process is the University of Worcester, headquartered at Henwick Grove, Worcester, with Nicola Brecknell as the contact point.

This tender provides substantial opportunities for companies specialising in web content management systems to engage with a prominent educational institution over an eight-year contract. Businesses that offer robust content management solutions and have the ability to serve diverse geographical locations would find this opportunity highly suitable. Although this particular contract has been awarded to Zengenti Ltd, an organisation based in Ludlow, similar future opportunities can provide growth potential for other businesses in the software services sector. Given the nature of the restricted procedure, the procurement process favoured suppliers with specific expertise and track records in content management software, making it ideal for experienced firms in this niche market.
