## Summary

The University of Nottingham is seeking to extend the licence for its "Magpie" software, also looking to incorporate the 'Content Intelligence' software. This procurement process falls within the information technology industry, specifically related to industry-specific software packages, with a total value of £155,000. The award, which has been completed, occurred on 19 March 2022, and the contract period was effective from the same date. The procurement was conducted as a direct method via a single tender action below threshold, with delivery addresses in the East Midlands region of the United Kingdom.

The successful bidder, Filtered Technologies Limited, has set a precedent that could inspire similar companies to showcase their innovations and contribute to the evolving needs of educational software.
