## Summary

Middlesbrough Council, a sub-central government public authority in the United Kingdom, has completed a procurement process for Articulate 360 licenses through a direct award contract to OMNIPLEX (GROUP) LIMITED. The procurement process, under the title 'LG021 - Articulate 360 licenses', was classified under the services category with a main focus on IT services such as consulting and software development. The procurement, executed below threshold without competition, commenced on 17th September 2025 and is set to conclude by 16th September 2028. The total gross value of the contract is £15,876, which covers the delivery of services to the specified UKC12 region.

This procurement offers substantial opportunities for businesses specialising in eLearning software solutions, particularly those capable of integrating seamlessly with existing learning management systems. Given that the contract was awarded without competition, similar companies could benefit by showcasing their unique compatibilities and cost-effective solutions in future collaborations with public authorities. SMEs with expertise in creating IT solutions for organisational development, licensing, and content development tools may find opportunities for growth by establishing direct relationships with sub-central government bodies such as Middlesbrough Council.

## Notice

Omniplex provide an eLearning creation software tool that is necessary for the organisational development team to create eLearning modules in house. This avoids the need to use external providers to design and develop our content at a much greater cost. The articulate 360 license that Omniplex provide is compatible with our learning management system software which does not have a ability to create content without this specific development tool. In addition, the content developers within the Organisational Development team are trained in the use of this specific software. We wish to direct award the contact to Omniplex as other software providers are more expensive and/or not as compatible with the software in our learning management system. There would also be additional costs to train staff in the use of a new tool if we were to move to another provider.
