Summary of the contracting process

The University of Glasgow has completed an award for the provision of market intelligence data, titled "PURCH2693 – PPE1003814 Direct Award for the Provision of Market Intelligence Data". The procurement fell under the services category, focusing on market intelligence within the education sector. This contract was awarded via a limited procurement method, specifically without prior publication, justified by regulatory exemptions applicable to research and development services. The contract was signed on 18th September 2025 for delivery in the Glasgow region, handled under the regulations governing public bodies. S&P Global Market Intelligence LLC was appointed as the supplier, with the contract valued at £69,654.

This tender provides a direct opportunity for businesses engaged in market intelligence services and those developing niche products for research purposes. Firms experienced in working with academic institutions, especially those offering data analysis and research services, would find such opportunities fruitful. Although the direct award limits competition, it exemplifies how businesses specialising in research data and corporate intelligence, particularly those of a larger scale, can secure contracts by aligning with university-specific needs for innovative research solutions. This creates openings for expanding service portfolios and establishing lasting partnerships within the education sector.
