Summary of the contracting process

Southampton Solent University bought a student services system for managing halls of residence and coordinating estates maintenance issues. The work is a software service in the facilities-management field. The requirement relates to the university’s halls and estates in the Southampton area.

The procurement is complete and the contract is active. KINETIC SOLUTIONS LIMITED was selected for the single lot, and the contract was signed on 7 July 2026. Its value is £75,060 excluding VAT (£90,072 including VAT). The contract runs from 1 August 2026 to 31 July 2028, with options. The procurement was below threshold; further details of the method and evaluation basis are not stated in the process information.

For suppliers considering a comparable future requirement from Southampton Solent University, this award shows demand for a system that supports student services in halls while coordinating estates maintenance issues. A credible competitor would need to demonstrate software suited to those linked operational needs and the ability to provide the service at a scale appropriate to a university halls and estates environment. The selected supplier was a large company, but the process information does not establish that large-company status was a requirement or that particular accreditations, technical qualifications or experience were assessed.
