## Summary

The procurement process for a "Professional Learning Service Tool" is being managed by the Llywodraeth Cymru / Welsh Government, headquartered in Cardiff, UK. The contract, initially awarded to EduPlanet 21 LLC, involves a direct procurement method due to the supplier's exclusive intellectual property rights. A key amendment to the contract was made on 5th June 2026, requiring additional services for which only the original supplier is qualified. The legal basis for the contract adheres to the Procurement Act 2023, Schedule 5, with the project's industry category concentrating on education and training services. Key timelines include the beginning of the services on 1st September 2025, and the initial contract period extends until 31st August 2028, with potential extensions until 2030.

This tender provides significant opportunities for businesses involved in educational technology and curriculum development services, particularly those able to support and enhance the Curriculum for Wales. Companies with the ability to innovate in educational tools and provide bilingual asynchronous learning environments are well-suited to such procurements. The exclusive nature of the intellectual property's rights may limit direct competition but highlights the demand for specialised skills that businesses can focus on to grow their influence in public sector opportunities within Wales and possibly beyond.
