## Summary

Sheffield Hallam University has successfully awarded a contract for "Academic Work Planning software," classified under the CPV code 48190000 for educational software packages. The contract, valued at £118,702, is set to run from 14 December 2020 to 31 December 2023. This procurement process followed a competition waiver method due to the inability to identify alternative suppliers in the higher education sector. The award was published on 5 March 2021, following the tender period which closed on 11 November 2020, with the contract now marked as active.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses within the educational technology sector, particularly for those who can offer specialised software solutions tailored to the needs of higher education institutions. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs) could be well-positioned to compete in future similar tenders, leveraging their agility and innovative capabilities to meet the specific requirements of larger purchasing organisations such as Sheffield Hallam University.
