## Summary

The University of Exeter has successfully completed the procurement process for a cloud-based Security Information and Event Management (SIEM) platform. This tender, valued at £800,000, falls under the IT services industry, specifically focusing on consulting, software development, and support. The procurement method used was an open procedure, with the tender period concluding on 20 December 2021. The contract is set to commence on 1 June 2022 and will run until 31 May 2027, serving delivery addresses within the South West region of the United Kingdom.

This contract presents significant opportunities for businesses specialising in IT services, particularly those focused on cloud solutions and security management. Companies with expertise in developing and managing SIEM platforms, as well as related system and support services, would be particularly well-suited to compete. Additionally, as a large-scale procurement by the University of Exeter, this initiative could foster partnerships or collaborations between various IT service providers looking to enhance their market presence within the education sector.

## Notice

The key objectives are to procure a SIEM (Security Information and Event Management) platform that resides in the cloud so that the build and management of infrastructure is not the responsibility of the University of Exeter. In addition, the University would also like to explore other possible service offerings for managing the actual event data collected.
