This tender falls under the services category, specifically focusing on public address systems. The procurement is currently in the award stage, with key deadlines having passed; the tender period ended on 25 January 2021, and the contract is set to begin on 1 April 2021 and continue until 31 March 2025. The estimated contract value is £35,000, with a minimum threshold of £25,000, and it is being procured through an open procedure, designed to encourage broad participation from potential suppliers. This opportunity presents a significant avenue for business growth, particularly for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) that specialise in software development and integration for educational institutions. Companies with expertise in developing postcode lookup solutions or enhancing student record management systems would be ideally positioned to compete for this contract. Given the specific needs outlined by the University of Southampton, suppliers that can demonstrate innovative and effective solutions for address management within the Banner system could secure a valuable contract that supports the continued functionality of essential educational services. ## Notice The University manages its student records using a system called Banner. Banner is one of the leading student records management software packages in the UK higher education market. The Banner system has various functions that require the ability to look up addresses based on post codes. Banner does not directly support post code address lookups, so a separate piece of integrated software is required to provide this functionality. The current software package is near end of life and our extended licence will expire in March 2021. A new post lookup software package needs to be in place by this date to allow Banner to continue functioning as expected.
