## Summary

The University of Kent has recently completed the procurement process for the "Britannic Managed Service," with the contracting award finalised on 28th October 2025. This procurement falls under the services category in telecommunications and information technology, intended for improving the university's IT and communication systems. The procurement was handled directly without competition, under the legal basis of UK legislation 2023/54. The University, based in Canterbury (UKJ44), has engaged Britannic Technologies Limited, located in Guildford (UKJ25), to deliver these services. The contract period is scheduled from 31st October 2025 to 30th October 2026, ensuring 24/7 proactive management from a UK-based Network Operations Centre to enhance cybersecurity, system uptime, and reduce internal operational overheads.

The business growth potential lies in leveraging resources to offer comprehensive service packages that can operate on a partnership basis, as demonstrated by Britannic Technologies. Small to medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) with capabilities to deliver continuous support and efficient system management can find lucrative opportunities in the education sector, particularly if they can provide robust infrastructure and optimisation services to public authorities like universities.

## Notice
