## Summary

This is a higher education student management system and associated service requirement, delivered for Birkbeck in London. The procurement sits within a framework for student management systems and associated services.

The procurement is complete and Tribal Education Limited was selected for the contract. The award was made on 28 July 2026, for £488,895. The contract period runs from 1 August 2026 to 31 July 2029. The estimated procurement value was also £488,895. The contract was let as a selective call-off from the APUC framework for student management systems and associated services, under its higher education lot. The tender submission deadline was 14 July 2026. The published procurement information does not describe the evaluation criteria or set out specific supplier eligibility requirements.

This award confirms demand at Birkbeck for continued licensing and support around a higher education student records platform, including its e:vision system and the IPP06 and IC205 components. Tribal Education Limited was selected, so a credible competitor for a future requirement of this kind would need to demonstrate that it can supply and maintain student management software suited to higher education, support an established student-records environment, and handle continuity of existing licences while moving to a new framework arrangement. The route used was a higher education call-off from a student management systems framework, so suppliers seeking similar work should be capable of competing through an applicable framework. The opportunity was considered suitable for SMEs, indicating that this scale of requirement was not confined to large suppliers.
