Summary of the contracting process

Bath Spa University bought a five-year asset-store software service from SISO Software Limited. The requirement is for software and information systems used to store or manage the university’s assets. The award is classified as goods, but the stated scope is an asset-store software contract. Delivery is in the United Kingdom. The procurement was for one lot and was bought by Bath Spa University for its own use.

The procurement is complete and a contract has been awarded to SISO Software Limited. Bath Spa University used a below-threshold limited competition. The contract was signed on 23 July 2026 and runs from 1 September 2026 to 31 August 2031. Its gross value is £38,556. The award is active and the contract is active. The procurement comprised one lot, which is complete. No evaluation criteria are recorded in the process information.

For suppliers of asset-management or asset-store software, this award demonstrates demand at a modest, defined scale from a university buyer. A credible competitor for a similar requirement would need to provide software suited to storing or managing organisational assets and support a multi-year service arrangement. SISO Software Limited, the selected supplier, is identified as an SME, showing that a smaller supplier competed successfully under this limited-competition route. The buyer’s requirement is specifically for asset-store software; suppliers whose offer is limited to unrelated software or general IT services would be less closely aligned. Competitors can use this procurement as evidence of the type of software and supplier profile Bath Spa University has selected.
