Summary of the contracting process

Coventry University has awarded a contract for the renewal of the LeanIX Enterprise Architecture Platform through a direct award process. The procurement, governed by the UKPGA legal basis, involves a Software-as-a-Service solution that facilitates strategic IT planning and technology lifecycle governance. Situated in Coventry, UK, the university is acting within the sub-central government authority classification. The contract, awarded to SAP (UK) LIMITED, is active from 30th March 2026 to 29th March 2029, with a gross contract value of £367,426.80. This procurement falls under the 'goods' category and pertains to software packages and information systems intended for delivery within the UKG3 region.

This tender offers considerable opportunities for enterprises specialising in IT and software solutions, particularly those experienced in enterprise architecture and SaaS platforms. Businesses that can provide strategic IT support, transparency, rationalisation and modernisation services to Coventry University's IT estate could leverage the LeanIX platform for extension into other similar contracts. Larger entities familiar with direct award procurement and ongoing governance and integration processes will find this contract suitable for expansion and strategic portfolio management.
