This process is classified under the industry category of "Software package and information systems." The university, located in Cardiff, is conducting preliminary market engagement scheduled to conclude by 19 February 2026. Interested parties are invited to access documentation through the University's 'In-Tend' portal, where communication will be facilitated. The procurement is aimed at securing goods valued at £420,000 and is governed by Welsh devolved regulations, with a contract period envisaged to start from 1 September 2026 for a duration of three years. A future notice date for further communication is planned for 1 May 2026. This procurement provides an exciting opportunity for businesses specialising in software and information systems to collaborate with Cardiff Metropolitan University, particularly those offering Curriculum Management Systems. Businesses capable of delivering high-quality software solutions at a competitive price within the specified deadline will find this tender particularly appealing. The opportunity is well-suited for companies looking to expand their footprint within the education sector and work with sub-central government entities in the UKL region. With the market engagement phase currently underway, companies eager to showcase their capabilities stand to benefit from early involvement in shaping product offerings that meet the University's requirements. ## Notice Through this pre-market engagement (PME), Cardiff Metropolitan University ("the University") is seeking to gain a better understanding of the current systems and service capabilities available in the marketplace, that could potentially provide a comprehensive Curriculum Management System (CMS) to the University. ### Planning Information The process will be conducted via the University’s ‘In-Tend’ portal, where interested parties will be able to access the initial documentation in the form of a questionnaire, receive all process related notifications and issue correspondence. The portal web address is: https://in-tendhost.co.uk/cardiffmet/aspx/Home The notice web address is: https://in-tendhost.co.uk/cardiffmet/aspx/ProjectManage/262 Outgoing messages from the University will be sent to bidders using the email address entered as part of the portal registration process. In considering what email address to use for this purpose, we strongly recommend that a generic, shared email mail account is used to help avoid any loss of communication through changes of staff or staff sickness or holidays that may occur. On review of submissions, the University intends to invite a maximum of four (n=4) interested parties to demonstrate their system to a panel of University stakeholders.
