## Summary

Warwickshire County Council has completed the procurement process for its Curriculum Software project, a contract awarded to 2 SIMPLE LIMITED. The procurement focused on providing an online learning platform to schools across the United Kingdom for teaching the computing curriculum through the council's WES trading service. Located in Warwick, the council uses its ICT service to deliver software and hardware packages. This award process was finalised with a direct procurement method, citing technical reasons and a single supplier need for the Purple Mash product. The contract, valued at £313,515 (gross amount £376,218), commenced on 1 February 2026 and runs until 31 January 2029, supporting schools with essential software packages and product choices.

This procurement offers significant opportunities for businesses specialising in educational technology and software development. Suppliers providing software solutions or educational platforms may find similar opportunities for collaboration and growth by engaging with local government initiatives aimed at enhancing educational services. Small to medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), like 2 SIMPLE LIMITED, benefit from contracts that highlight their niche offerings in curriculum-based software solutions. Engaging in these procurement initiatives positions businesses well to expand their reach in the educational sector and leverage government partnerships to foster long-term growth.

## Notice

WCC provides an online learning platform to schools for teaching the computing curriculum via its WES trading service. WCC Schools ICT service delivers a traded service to schools to provide services including software and hardware packages. Schools are able to use the WCC traded service or procure themselves independently and therefore have an element of customer choice in terms of products that they require. A number of schools currently using the traded service use the Purple Mash curriculum suite of software provided by 2Simple Ltd. WCC therefore requires access to the Purple Mash product to enable it to provide the service to schools.
