## Summary

The University of Birmingham conducted a procurement process to secure suppliers for Distance Learning Programmes in their College of Social Sciences (CoSS) for January and February 2024. The contracting authority utilised a restricted procedure (above threshold), indicative of a selective procurement method. The total contract value was £706,818.28. The tender period concluded on 22 April 2023, with the contract period set to commence on 1 January 2024 and end on 28 February 2024. The procurement fell under the 'Education and training services' category, with the main delivery location specified by postal code B15 2TT.

This tender presents a substantial opportunity for businesses engaged in the education and training sector. It particularly favours larger organisations due to its substantial value and restricted procedure, making it less accessible for SMEs and VCSEs. Companies with experience in delivering comprehensive distance learning solutions will find this tender beneficial for showcase and portfolio expansion. The successful supplier, John Wiley & Sons Limited, exemplifies the kind of reputable and large-scale enterprise suitable for such projects.
