UK6 - Contract Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The University of Bedfordshire procured CAS Shield software, including its setup and implementation. The requirement combines an educational software package with related maintenance and support services. The service is intended for the university’s use, with delivery in the United Kingdom. The buying organisation is the University of Bedfordshire, based in Luton. The procurement covers one lot and is classified as a services requirement. The named solution and implementation work indicate an opportunity for suppliers able to provide education-focused software together with the technical services needed to put it into operation and support it.

The procurement is complete and was awarded to Enroly Ltd. The university made a direct award below threshold without competition. The award was made on 10 September 2026, for £71,700 excluding VAT (£86,040 including VAT). The contract period runs from 2 October 2026 to 1 October 2027. The procurement consisted of one lot, covering the CAS Shield educational software package and associated services. No evaluation criteria are stated in the published procurement data; the recorded route was a direct award rather than a competitive evaluation. The supplier has been selected, and the award is active.

This award shows that the University of Bedfordshire buys educational software alongside implementation and related maintenance services, rather than software alone. Suppliers seeking to compete for a similar requirement should be able to supply an education-focused software package and demonstrate the technical capability to set it up, implement it and provide ongoing support. The selected provider was Enroly Ltd, recorded as a small and medium-sized enterprise and a voluntary, community or social enterprise. That demonstrates that a smaller supplier was selected for this requirement. The route used was a below-threshold direct award without competition, so comparable work may be placed through a non-competitive process. Credibility rests on a suitable education software product and the capacity to deliver implementation and associated support for a university.
