## Summary

The Department for Education (DfE) has completed the award stage of its procurement process for the management of Oracle Intelligent Advisor capabilities, under the EDAS Intelligent Advisor Managed Services Re-procurement. Based in London, the DfE has selected ITNEXTGEN LIMITED as the supplier through a call-off agreement from the Digital Outcomes 6 framework, classified under IT services including consulting and support. This contract spans various locations including the United Kingdom, British Overseas Territories, and Europe, with a total value of £4.98 million over a period of nearly two years, from January 2026 to December 2027. This procurement, using a selective method, aims to provide essential services to support functions vital to T-Levels Data Collection and other key data processing elements.

This tender offers significant growth potential for enterprises skilled in IT services, particularly those specialising in data collection and software development. With a focus on consulting and intelligent data solutions, businesses experienced in supporting large-scale educational technology projects would be well-suited to meet the requirements. While the call-off agreement presents opportunities for adaptability with statements of work issued as needed, small and medium enterprises (SMEs) are encouraged to engage, despite no guaranteed minimum spend, as the contract is designed to evolve according to business needs, offering substantial opportunities for innovation and service enhancement.
