UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Southampton Solent University procured a licence for its content management system (CMS), supporting the university’s internal and external websites. The requirement covers the CMS software licence and associated development and disaster recovery environments. The service is for the university’s digital estate in Southampton.

The procurement is complete and was awarded to Zengenti Limited. Southampton Solent University used a below-threshold direct award without competition. The contract was signed on 20 July 2026 and runs from 1 August 2026 to 1 August 2027. Its value is £41,804 excluding VAT (£50,164.80 including VAT). The procurement was a single lot. No separate award date or evaluation criteria are stated.

The award demonstrates demand from Southampton Solent University for CMS licensing that supports both internal and external websites, including development and disaster recovery environments. Suppliers seeking to compete for a future requirement from this buyer would need to provide a CMS licence and support these environments. Zengenti Limited, an SME, was selected through a direct award without competition; the procurement does not establish particular technical accreditations or minimum capacity requirements.
