Summary of the contracting process

Jisc, based in Bristol, United Kingdom, has initiated a public procurement process for "Careers Management platforms and associated systems" under the classification of Software package and information systems (CPV 48000000). This tender is currently in the planning stage and aims to gather market information through a Request for Information (RFI). Interested vendors should note that this process does not constitute a call for competition, as the framework structure and value are still undecided. The final deadline for submitting responses to the RFI has been extended to 7th October 2024 at 12:00 PM. This tender may evolve into an Open Framework under the incoming Procurement Act 2023 regulations, providing new opportunities for vendors to engage in a structured and potentially renewable contract.

This tender presents an ideal opportunity for businesses involved in software development, particularly those specialising in educational, scheduling, project management, and customer relation management software packages. This process allows potential suppliers to influence future procurement exercises and demonstrate their capabilities to Jisc. Companies experienced in delivering comprehensive information systems and software packages will find notable business growth prospects by participating in this RFI and subsequent tender processes. The procurement method follows a selective, restricted procedure, which ensures that only qualified vendors will proceed to the competition phase, thus increasing the chances for capable businesses to secure a long-term partnership with Jisc.
