## Summary

Coventry University has completed the procurement process for a "SciVal maintenance renewal" contract, classified under Software package and information systems (CPV code 48000000). The direct procurement method was utilised, specifically a single tender action below the threshold. The contract, valued at £43,930.08, saw an active award on 23rd August 2024, with the contract period spanning from 1st November 2024 to 31st October 2025. This procurement focuses on services vital for the university's academic performance analytics and is managed from Coventry, England (postal code CV1 5FB).

This tender offers substantial business growth opportunities, particularly for large scale software and information system service providers. Although Coventry University opted for a direct procurement method with Elsevier B.V., similar future opportunities could benefit firms capable of delivering specialised academic analytics software. Companies specialising in benchmarking and performance measurement software for academic institutions would find this type of procurement well-suited to their offerings.
