UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Bath Spa University procured consultancy services to support a consultation on renewing its Blackboard service. The work concerns procurement advice for the university’s Blackboard renewal, rather than the supply of the learning platform itself. The selected service provider was Wyn Procurement Limited. The service was delivered in the UK; no more specific delivery place is identified. The requirement was treated as one lot and falls within procurement consultancy services.

The procurement is complete and the contract has been awarded to Wyn Procurement Limited. Bath Spa University used a direct award below the applicable threshold, without competition. The contract was signed on 1 August 2026 and runs from 1 August 2026 to 31 July 2030. Its gross value is £55,437.55. The recorded evaluation basis and eligibility requirements are not available in the process details. The purchase was for consultancy fees relating to the Blackboard renewal consultation, not a platform renewal contract.

For procurement consultancies, this award shows Bath Spa University’s demand for specialist advice on consulting around renewal of a major learning platform. Wyn Procurement Limited, recorded as an SME, was selected for this requirement. A credible competitor for similar work would need to demonstrate relevant procurement consultancy capability, including experience advising on technology or learning-platform renewals and managing the associated consultation. The route used here was a below-threshold direct award without competition, so this outcome does not establish a competitive tendering route or specific scored criteria. The requirement is focused and modest in scale compared with major platform implementation or supply contracts; suppliers whose offer is limited to providing Blackboard licences or technical hosting would not match the consultancy requirement.
