Summary of the contracting process

The University of Worcester is procuring industry-specific nutrition analysis software for its School of Health and Wellbeing. The software is intended to support teaching across multiple courses, including Nutrition and Lifestyle Medicine and Nutrition and Dietetics. This is a software supply requirement rather than a construction or consultancy contract. The buying organisation is based in Worcester, and the requirement is associated with its site at Henwick Grove. The delivery coverage recorded for the requirement includes the United Kingdom, Europe, the Isle of Man, the Channel Islands, British Overseas Territories and the rest of the world. Businesses supplying nutrition analysis platforms or related specialist software for education and health-focused teaching environments are the most relevant audience.

The procurement has been completed following an open procedure. The contract was awarded on 31 July 2026 to Dietary Assessment Ltd. The awarded value is £10,800. The contract period runs from 1 September 2026 to 31 August 2028. The original tender deadline was 12 June 2026 at 10:00. The requirement was evaluated as a goods procurement for a software package, with the award made to the selected supplier. The award is active and the tender is complete. The recorded procurement value and awarded value are both £10,800, providing a clear indication of the scale of this software requirement for the University of Worcester.

This award demonstrates a defined requirement for specialist nutrition analysis software within higher education. A credible future supplier would need a product that directly supports teaching in nutrition, dietetics, lifestyle medicine and related health courses, rather than a general-purpose software platform. The requirement also indicates that the buyer values a complete software solution capable of serving multiple courses within a university School of Health and Wellbeing. Relevant competitors are likely to be established providers of nutrition assessment or analysis systems, with the product functionality and educational suitability to support repeated teaching use. The stated SME suitability is false, so smaller businesses should assess carefully whether their scale and delivery capability match the buyer’s expectations.
