UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Coventry University engaged Deloitte LLP to provide a lead developer for its Salesforce platform. The work adds development capacity to enhance and extend the platform, continuing support Deloitte has provided since the platform was implemented. The developer works alongside the platform’s established release management processes, which Deloitte provides under a separate service arrangement. This is software development and IT support work (CPV 72000000). The buying organisation is Coventry University, and delivery is in the United Kingdom.

The procurement is complete and the contract has been awarded to Deloitte LLP, which also signed the contract. The university used a direct award without competition through the G Cloud 14 framework, after a framework search returned Deloitte as the only supplier for the search term. The contract runs from 1 August 2026 to 31 July 2027. Its value is £171,737 excluding VAT (£206,084.40 including VAT). The award date is not stated. The procurement was organised as one lot. The stated basis for selection was Deloitte’s result in the framework search; no separate evaluation criteria are described.

This award indicates demand at Coventry University for ongoing Salesforce development capacity, specifically a lead developer able to enhance and extend an established platform while working in step with a separate release management service and its release cadence. A credible supplier for a future requirement of this kind would need demonstrable Salesforce development capability, the experience to continue work on an implemented platform, and the capacity to provide a lead developer who can coordinate with the university’s release processes. The route used here was a direct award through G Cloud 14, following a search that returned only one supplier. Suppliers seeking comparable work should therefore consider both framework eligibility and whether their services can be found through the relevant framework search terms.
