UK6 - Contract Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The University of Bedfordshire is procuring an Egress service renewal, classified as computer network services. The buying organisation is the University of Bedfordshire, based at University Square in Luton. The requirement is delivered in the United Kingdom. This is a service opportunity for suppliers providing Egress-related technology services, network services or associated software support to higher education organisations. Businesses whose work covers renewal, continuation or support of established digital communications and network-security services are the closest fit. The procurement relates to a single service requirement rather than a portfolio of separate goods, works or service categories.

The procurement is complete and was awarded on 3 July 2026 to BOXXE LIMITED. It used a direct award below the applicable threshold, without competition. There was one lot, with an award value of £30,894 excluding VAT and £37,072.60 including VAT. The awarded contract period runs from 30 July 2026 to 1 August 2027. A contract signature was scheduled for 17 July 2026. The award is active and the tender is complete. BOXXE LIMITED is the sole awarded supplier. The process therefore concluded without competing bids being evaluated under an open tender, selective procedure or multi-supplier award arrangement.

For suppliers that did not win this procurement, the award provides a clear picture of the University of Bedfordshire’s requirement for continued Egress-related computer network services. A credible future competitor would need to deliver renewal services reliably within a university environment, maintain continuity for an established service, and provide the technical capability and support capacity needed across the contract period. The selected supplier, BOXXE LIMITED, is recorded as both a small or medium-sized enterprise and a voluntary, community or social enterprise. Businesses with comparable experience in Egress services, network support and higher-education technology environments would be best placed to monitor this buyer’s future requirement without assuming that the next procurement will follow the same route.
