OJEU - F3 - Contract Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Dundee City Council procured an e-learning portal for use in Dundee. The requirement is for a digital learning platform, rather than general IT equipment or unrelated training services. The procurement is described as an e-learning portal for the Council, with the delivery location recorded as Dundee. It was categorised as a goods procurement and classified under software-related products. The available description does not set out specific platform features, user numbers, course content or implementation tasks, so the requirement can be understood at a high level as supplying an e-learning portal for the Council.

The procurement is complete and the contract was awarded to Learning Pool Ltd. The Council used a direct award through the Crown Commercial Service G-Cloud 14 framework, without a separate competition or prior call for competition. One lot was awarded, with price as the stated award criterion; one bid was recorded. The contract value is £283,408. It was signed on 20 May 2026 and is recorded as active. The lot includes an option to extend the contract for a further 12 months, up to 17 May 2030. The award record does not provide a separate award date or a contract start date, so the signed date and stated extension limit are the available timing details.

This award shows Dundee City Council’s demand for an e-learning portal and that it used the G-Cloud 14 framework to make a direct award. A supplier seeking to compete for a comparable requirement when it returns to market would need a suitable learning platform and the ability to supply it through the relevant framework route, if the Council continues to use that route. The recorded award was assessed on price, so competitive pricing is a clear commercial consideration. One bid was recorded, indicating that a single supplier competed in this process; the data does not describe the selected supplier’s technical capabilities or the portal’s detailed specification. Suppliers with a demonstrable fit for public-sector e-learning delivery and framework eligibility would be best placed to assess this buyer’s requirement.
