Summary of the contracting process

The University of Staffordshire, a sub-central government public authority, has completed a procurement process for the renewal of Evasys software licences. The contracting process, identified by the title "Evasys Licence Renewal," falls under the software package and information systems industry category. The procurement was conducted via a direct method, specifically below threshold and without competition, as the licences are exclusively provided by Evasys Ltd and integrated into the university's operations. This contract commenced on 17 October 2025 and will run until 16 October 2026, covering Stoke-on-Trent in the United Kingdom.

This procurement process presents limited opportunities for other businesses since it was conducted without competition and directly awarded to Evasys Ltd. However, such opportunities can signal the importance of establishing unique, niche offerings that integrate closely with client systems, thereby creating a non-competitive edge. Businesses involved in software development, particularly those specialising in bespoke solutions for educational institutions, can consider developing unique products or services that may lead to similar renewals and long-term contracts, fostering business growth through specialised expertise.
