Jisc seeks to enter into a contract with Adestra Upland Software. The Adestra email system is integrated with bespoke software throughout Jisc's multiple products and services, providing an automated email service and high level of data security.
Procurement Information
Competition is absent for technical reasons. Therefore, Jisc is clear that the arrangement falls within the protection of exclusive rights, including intellectual property rights, contained within Regulation 32 (2) (b) (ii) of the Public Contracts Regulations 2015, permitting Jisc to enter into the direct award. - A re-engineering of these integrations would require an investment which would outweigh the value of a replacement service. Re-engineering would have to take place over an extensive period and could lead to interruptions in service, decreased capacity of staff - through extensive re-training programme, and possible data loss or higher risks to data security. Undertaking these activities would mean that other core projects for the business such as CRM alignment would also suffer.-

This notification provides information on the award decision. The standstill period, which will be for a minimum of 10 calendar days, provides time for suppliers to challenge the award decision before the contract is entered into. The Public Contracts Regulations 2015 article 91 provides for aggrieved parties who have been harmed or are at risk of harm by a breach of the rules to take action in the High Court (England, Wales and Northern Ireland).",
