Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process initiated by the Department for Education involves the renewal of licenses with Udemy, Inc, primarily covering education and training services. The contract, titled "Udemy License Renewal (con_28492)," encompasses 79 licenses for the period March 26, 2026, to March 27, 2027. As a central government public authority located in London, the Department for Education opted for a direct procurement method, categorised as below a threshold without competition, which has now reached the award stage. This procurement, with a gross value of GBP 22,868.60, was concluded with the signing date on 12 September 2025, and has been officially active since 26 September 2025.

This tender presents business growth opportunities, particularly appealing to suppliers of educational technology and training services, or similar large-scale organisations. Despite being a direct procurement, businesses with the ability to offer comprehensive educational tools and resources can benefit from such partnerships with government authorities, facilitating continued engagement in the public procurement space. By aligning services with the needs of public sector entities, businesses can enhance their portfolio and expand their client base significantly. The opportunity aligns notably with large-scale businesses familiar with public-sector contracts and those focusing on strategic expansions in the educational field.
