Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process in question involves the University of Dundee, which has awarded a contract titled "E-Payment Services Agreement" in the services industry category. This agreement, categorised under financial transaction processing and clearing-house services (CPV 66172000), is intended to ensure the continuity of cashless processes resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic. The procurement method employed was a limited award procedure without prior publication of a call for competition, with the decision based on the established relationship with the supplier, WPM Education Ltd. The contract was signed on 24 August 2021, with a total value of £198,750 and is currently active.

This tender provides significant opportunities for businesses in the financial services sector, particularly those involved in payment processing and technological integrations in educational settings. Companies that have experience in delivering cashless payment solutions, along with those that can demonstrate a capacity for high integration standards, would be well-suited to compete in future tenders that may arise in a similar context. The University of Dundee's reliance on a previous supplier suggests a potential for businesses to establish long-term relationships within the public sector, which can be advantageous for sustained growth.

Procurement Information

UoD are currently utilising systems that include integrations with the well-established supplier, WPM, who have been embedded with the student journey for the past 9 years. It is vital to ensure consistency for income collection and integrations ensuring applicants and students are not impacted, particularly as we are reliant on cashless processes as a direct result of COVID-19. Therefore, the decision was made to renew the contract with WPM for 3+2 years.
