Summary of the contracting process

The University of Glasgow procured an Oracle Enterprise Data Management (EDM) Cloud Service for its university operations. The requirement covers a hosted service supporting 1,000 records, supplied through a call-off contract under the Software Value Added Reseller Framework (SVAR), reference SP-21-034. This is a cloud software and software-reseller service rather than a works or physical-goods contract. Delivery is associated with Glasgow, Scotland. The buyer is the University of Glasgow, an education organisation. The procurement was for one service requirement, covering the Oracle EDM Cloud Service for the specified hosted record capacity. Suppliers relevant to this opportunity would therefore include Oracle cloud service providers, authorised resellers and businesses able to supply and support enterprise data-management software in a university environment.

The procurement has been completed and awarded. It used an open procedure and was made as a call-off under the Software Value Added Reseller Framework (SVAR); the opportunity title also describes it as a direct award. One electronic bid was received, and the contract was awarded to Computacenter (UK) Limited. The contract value is £118,038. The contract was signed on 30 June 2026 and is active. The service period is for a maximum of three years. There was one lot, covering the hosted Oracle EDM Cloud Service for 1,000 records. The award relates to the whole requirement, and the recorded process was covered by the Government Procurement Agreement. The procurement category was services.

This completed award indicates established demand at the University of Glasgow for hosted Oracle Enterprise Data Management supporting a substantial but defined record base. Competitors seeking similar work would need credible Oracle EDM Cloud capability, access to the relevant Oracle service, and the ability to supply it through an appropriate software value-added-reseller route or framework call-off. They would also need to demonstrate reliable cloud-service provision, enterprise data-management understanding and the operational capacity to support a university customer over a multi-year service period. The single bid and award to a large technology supplier indicate a market in which specialist Oracle knowledge, reseller status, framework access and dependable service delivery are commercially important. This requirement provides a focused reference point for suppliers tracking the University’s future enterprise software needs.
