Summary of the contracting process

Birmingham City University has completed a public procurement process for a Learning Analytics Solution, culminating in the award of the contract to KORTEXT LIMITED on 1st June 2026. The procurement, classified under Software programming and consultancy services, falls within the services category and is designed to enhance student engagement by harnessing integrated, data-driven insights. The open procedure tender was actively pursued from February 2026, with the award period concluding at the end of May. The contract, worth £900,000, will commence on 1st July 2026, lasting until 30th June 2029, with potential extensions up to 2031 for a total maximum term of five years. The project location is in Birmingham, United Kingdom, managed from the University's Joseph Priestley Building, and aims to transcend basic attendance monitoring, providing more nuanced student analytics.

Companies like KORTEXT LIMITED have demonstrated success through strategic alignment with the University’s objective to improve student outcomes. Small to medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) with innovative solutions in educational software and system integration are well-positioned to benefit from similar opportunities, especially if they can provide tailored, scalable, and performance-driven technology products. The procurement's open procedure facilitated competitive participation, allowing various vendors, including SMEs, to compete through a transparent and structured tendering process.
