The "Campus Connect" procurement process was conducted by the University of Salford, a sub-central government public authority located in Salford, UK. The process was carried out under the legal framework set by the UKPGA 2023/54 and used a limited procurement method for competition below thresholds. The award was finalised on 16th September 2025, with a contract running from this date until 16th September 2028. The procurement concerns software packages and information systems (CPV code: 48000000) for the UKD3 region. This process is in the 'Award' stage, reflecting its completion with the supplier, Study Bundles T/A Campus Connect from Ireland, securing the contract valued at £74,400.

This tender presents substantial opportunities for businesses involved in providing software solutions, particularly those that specialise in information systems geared towards educational institutions. Companies classified as small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) are well-positioned to compete in such tenders due to the limited competition nature of this procurement process.
