## Summary

Coventry University, a sub-central government public authority based in Coventry, UK, has completed a procurement process for the "LinkedIn Hiring Assistant, Recruiter Corporate and Job Slot". This process, classified under the industry category of "Software package and information systems" (CPV: 48000000), commenced with a direct award to LinkedIn Ireland Unlimited Company. The contract, valued at £302,064.92 excluding VAT (£362,477.9 including VAT), started on 26th March 2026 and will run until 25th March 2029, providing the university with essential recruiting tools to assist in staff recruitment across its operations.

While the procurement method used was a direct award due to the unique nature and exclusivity of LinkedIn's offering, businesses that can specialise in providing complementary or alternative recruitment solutions, especially those focused on digital networking or professional profile systems, could find potential in developing partnerships or niche products that serve specific market needs alongside such platforms.
