UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process titled "Info4education" by the University of the West of England is a complete contract valued at £27,895.44, focusing on adult-education services at the university level ('services' industry category). This procurement process, identified by ocid 'ocds-h6vhtk-06d23b', is located in the United Kingdom, specifically in the Bristol area (regions UKK12 and UKK11). The process was a direct procurement method under the threshold, executed without competition, and subsequently awarded to JISC SERVICES LIMITED. The contract spans from 5th June 2026 to 31st May 2027, with the award noticed on 23rd July 2026.

This tender presents growth opportunities for businesses specialising in educational services, particularly those offering adult-education programs at university levels. SMEs like JISC SERVICES LIMITED, which focus on providing educational support and services, are well-positioned to benefit from such contracts, given the procurement method allows smaller suppliers to compete effectively in niche areas without the necessity for widespread competitive tendering. Businesses with expertise in education services and a base or operational capability in the Bristol area could leverage such procurement opportunities for strategic growth and market expansion.
