Summary of the contracting process

Saint Gregory’s Catholic College procured a fully outsourced managed ICT service covering ICT service delivery and project work, with TUPE arrangements included. The requirement combines IT support, consultancy, software development, internet and networking support, computer equipment and supplies, relevant software, and education and training services. The college is the buying organisation and the procurement was managed by Moxton Education Ltd. The work is based around the college in Bath and the awarded service covers delivery across England. This is a whole-service education-sector IT outsourcing requirement rather than a discrete hardware purchase or short-term consultancy assignment. It would suit providers able to take operational responsibility for an education organisation’s ICT environment, alongside project delivery and the transfer of affected staff under TUPE.

The procurement is complete and the contract was awarded to TURN IT ON LIMITED on 17 June 2026. It was run as an open competitive flexible procedure, with review and shortlisting, an ITT stage, moderated submissions and presentations, and final decisions. There was one lot, suitable for SMEs. Evaluation weighted quality at 70% and price at 30%. Eight bids were received and seven reached the final stage, including three from SMEs. The awarded and signed contract value is £1,000,000 excluding VAT and £1,200,000 including VAT. The contract runs from 1 August 2026 to 31 July 2031, and was signed on 31 July 2026. Expressions of interest were due by 23 April 2026 at noon; the award decision period ended on 22 June 2026.

This award demonstrates sustained demand from a Bath education provider for a single supplier to run ICT services and deliver projects over a substantial multi-year period. A credible competitor for a future requirement would need an integrated service operation covering user support, networks, internet and intranet services, software and systems support, equipment, consultancy and project delivery. Education-sector experience would be relevant because the service includes education and training activity and must support a school or college environment. The requirement also calls for the capability to manage TUPE transfers, maintain service continuity and provide enough operational capacity for a full ICT outsource rather than a narrow specialist work package. Strong quality evidence matters most in competition, while price remains a significant but smaller part of evaluation. The previous competition attracted SME participation, indicating that suitably scaled providers can compete.
