Summary of the contracting process

Swansea University, a public authority under the sub-central government classification in the UK, has completed a procurement process for a legal case management software titled "SU157(25) Legal Case Management Software". The procurement was carried out directly without competition owing to its below-threshold nature. The procurement stage is completed, and a contract has been actively awarded to Thomson Reuters, the supplier located in London. The contract, labelled as "SU157(25) HighQ Case Management Solution", commenced on 27th June 2025 and is set to end on 26th June 2030, with an overall contract value grossing £47,708.24, framed under Welsh devolved regulations and accommodating the needs of the UK's software package and information systems category.

This tender represents an opportunity for businesses specialising in software development, particularly those focusing on legal case management solutions, to identify niches within public procurement. Companies capable of offering specialised information systems may align well with similar future tenders, notwithstanding the completion of the current one. While large enterprises like Thomson Reuters have secured this contract, smaller and medium-sized enterprises can also prepare to respond to similar opportunities through strategic partnerships or unique value propositions that cater to sub-central government procurement needs. The procurement engagement underlines a significant aspect of public sector digital transformation initiatives, offering growth avenues for IT organisations looking to expand their portfolio in the public domain.
