Summary of the contracting process

Leeds City Council procured the renewal of its Maytas education software contract. The requirement is for IT services associated with the Maytas system; the available details identify the renewal but do not describe particular support, development or implementation tasks. Leeds City Council is the buying organisation, and the work relates to its use of Maytas in Leeds. The contract was awarded to Tribal Education Ltd, based in Sheffield. This is a single service requirement rather than a procurement divided into separately described work packages.

The procurement is complete and the contract is active. Leeds City Council made a direct award to Tribal Education Ltd without competition, using a below-threshold procedure. The contract was signed on 9 October 2026 and runs from 1 December 2026 to 30 November 2027. Its value is £18,366.33 including VAT. One lot was awarded. The published award information identifies IT services but gives no further description of delivery tasks or an evaluation basis; the procurement was directly awarded rather than evaluated through competing bids.

This award shows Leeds City Council buying a renewal of its Maytas education software arrangement, through a direct award to the existing named supplier, Tribal Education Ltd. A supplier seeking to compete for a similar requirement at the end of the contract period would need credible capability to supply or support Maytas and to meet the council’s needs for continued use of the system. The award does not set out specific technical, service-level, staffing or accreditation requirements, so the clearest evidence of relevant capability is experience delivering Maytas-related IT services. The scale is a relatively contained, single-lot software renewal rather than a broad, multi-lot IT programme.
