## Summary

The University of Staffordshire has completed a procurement process for its "Marketing Campaigns and Events Platform," resulting in a contract awarded to GECKO LABS LIMITED. This contract, classified under the software package and information systems industry, covers the provision of marketing campaign platforms for a duration of three years starting from 17th January 2026 to 16th January 2029. The procurement process, performed below threshold status, involved a legal framework under the UKPGA 2023/54 legislation and focuses on goods. The total contract value is approximately £153,780, with the contracting process having reached the award stage as of 17th February 2026. The services will be primarily delivered in the West Midlands area (UKG2 region), facilitating the seamless operation of marketing campaigns and events for the university, based in Stoke on Trent.

The awarded contract presents multiple opportunities for businesses specializing in software and information systems, notably SMEs with a focus on marketing technology solutions. The collaboration with a public authority, particularly one within the higher education sector, provides a platform for showcasing software capabilities and building a strong portfolio. Further prospects may arise from potential enhancements or scaling of the platform to include additional features that support evolving institutional needs. Businesses adept at delivering high-quality digital marketing services and customer engagement platforms would be well-positioned to compete in similar tenders or provide complementary services to public sector clients.
