## Summary

The University of Sheffield recently completed the procurement process for the "2596/MH PTC Vuforia Licenses," which falls under the industry category of industry-specific software packages. This tender, awarded on 12 June 2020, utilised a selective procurement method through a call-off from an existing framework agreement. The contract, with a total value of £269,000, will run from 15 June 2020 to 14 June 2022. This specific procurement does not require expressions of interest from suppliers, as it was awarded directly to the number one ranked supplier under the SUPC Software Licence Resellers Agreement.

This tender provides substantial opportunities for software providers, particularly those specialising in augmented reality solutions and related technologies, to engage with the University of Sheffield's research initiatives. Businesses with proven expertise in similar software packages and those capable of supporting academic research partnerships would be well-positioned to benefit from such projects. Engaging with such contracts can enhance credibility and establish long-lasting collaborations within the educational sector.

## Notice

This was a Direct Award as allowed to the number 1 ranked supplier under the SUPC Software Licence Resellers Agreement. The University is undertaking research on behalf of industrial partners who already use PTC Vuforia and have requested that research uses this software, therefore tendering for Augmented Reality Software was not an option. This process has been completed and no expressions of interest are required, nor can be processed.
