Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process involves Jisc, a National Research and Education Network Provider based in Bristol, UK, which has awarded a contract titled "Clarivate Analytics Web of Science SHEDL Agreement 2021-2024". This contract falls under the education and training services category and was signed on 20th September 2021, with a total estimated value of £1,000,000. The procurement method used was a negotiated limited procedure, allowing Jisc to award the contract directly to Clarivate Analytics (UK) Limited due to the unique nature of the services provided, thereby falling outside the typical competitive tendering process.

This contract provides significant opportunities for businesses focused on educational and training services, especially those looking to partner with institutions in the UK that require access to unique academic resources at preferential prices. Firms specialising in licensing digital content or offering related educational services would be particularly well-suited to compete in future tenders similar to this one.
