Summary of the contracting process

The University of East Anglia has completed a tendering process for an annual subscription to EBSCO Full text databases, classified under "Printed matter and related products" (CPV 22000000) and "Database systems" (CPV 48610000). The location for delivery is Norwich, postcode NR4 7TJ, and the procurement method involved competitive bids in accordance with university regulations. The tender period ended on 29th August 2024, and the award was published on 14th October 2024. The contract period spans from 1st October 2024 to 30th September 2026, indicating a two-year commitment. This process is in the award stage and is now complete.

This tender provides significant growth opportunities for firms specialising in digital information services, particularly those that develop or supply proprietary database products. Small or medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) in the technology and information sectors are well-suited to compete in similar future procurements, especially those with capabilities in delivering bespoke digital content services. Given the university’s procurement regulations, there is an opportunity for competitive firms to showcase their unique offerings that cannot be directly compared to others, thus adding value to their bids.
