## Summary

The procurement process was initiated by JISC, a sub-central government public authority based in Bristol, UK, with the aim of establishing a new jobs board platform for Prospects UK. The process was completed on 23rd March 2026 with the award of the contract. The tender was conducted without competition, utilising a direct procurement method classified as below threshold, and pertains to the service industry, specifically education and training services. The contract is set to commence from 16th March 2026 and will run until 15th March 2028.

This tender presents prospects for business growth, particularly for large service providers capable of delivering secure, compliant digital platforms. As it involves replacing legacy infrastructure, businesses specialising in cybersecurity and operational risk solutions could find relevance. The successful supplier, MADGEX LIMITED, based in Bognor Regis, UK, illustrates the opportunity for businesses skilled in developing or managing digital platforms aimed at supporting job search and vacancy posting services.

## Notice

A new jobs board platform has been procured to attach to prospects.ac.uk to replace the current one which does not meet Jisc's Cyber Essentials Plus compliance target. Legacy infrastructure supporting Prospects.ac.uk, including the job search and VPP (vacancy posting platform) services is to be replaced as the current systems cannot be upgraded and pose security and operational risks.
