Summary of the contracting process

Health Education and Improvement Wales (HEIW) has successfully concluded a public procurement process, awarding a contract for the purchase of Articulate licences and add-ons. The procurement process, initiated as a tender with award date on 22nd October 2025, involves education and training services, with a focus on continuity and value for money. The procurement method employed was direct, below the threshold, thus eliminating competition as Omniplex (Group) Ltd secured the contract due to their status as the sole authorised reseller of Articulate 360 in the UK and Europe. The contract, valued at £39,304 net and spanning from 15th October 2025 to 31st October 2027, is tailored to deliver services in Wales, United Kingdom, under the regulatory framework of Welsh devolved regulations.

This award presents significant opportunities for businesses focused on educational and training services, particularly those capable of providing supplementary or related digital learning solutions. Companies that specialize in software reselling or digital education solutions may find prospects in pursuing similar contracts, especially by leveraging specialised accreditation or exclusive distributorships, akin to Omniplex’s unique position with Articulate 360. Businesses with expertise in handling public sector clients or familiarity with Welsh or central government procurement might find advantageous entry points to such streamlined procurement pathways, enabling potential growth through strategic collaborations and enhanced service provisions within the public sector realm.
