Summary of the contracting process

London and South East University Group is procuring database and integration software to keep Oracle and its wider applications and data estate interoperable, including student record systems. The Universities of Greenwich and Kent have merged, leaving the Group with different applications, data environments and separate network infrastructures. The integration technology supports existing live integrations and is intended to maintain continuity while the Group’s wider digital integration programme operates within its privacy, data protection and cyber-security requirements. This is a software package and information systems requirement. Delivery is in the United Kingdom.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded by direct award to Boomi Corporation Limited. The buyer cited the need for continuity, alignment and specialist integration for its heavily modified Horizon (Oracle) and Banner student records systems, and relied on single-supplier, intellectual-property and technical grounds. The award is valued at £776,514.20 excluding VAT (£931,817.04 including VAT). The contract period runs from 4 November 2026 to 29 October 2031, with a maximum extent to 29 October 2033. The award was dated 21 October 2026. The procurement comprises one lot, and the award covers software. No evaluation criteria are stated.

This award indicates demand for specialist integration software that can maintain interoperability across a complex university technology estate, including Oracle, Banner and student record systems. A credible supplier for a comparable requirement would need proven capability with the relevant platforms and the technical expertise to support heavily modified systems and established live integrations without disrupting student services. The buyer’s rationale makes continuity, close alignment with its existing environment and specialist integration central to the requirement; generic software supply alone would not demonstrate that fit. Suppliers would also need to show that their integration approach can support a wider digital programme while meeting privacy, data protection and cyber-security requirements. The direct award and stated intellectual-property and technical grounds signal that incumbent technology and supplier-specific expertise were decisive considerations for this purchase.
