## Summary

The University of Greenwich, located at the Old Royal Naval College in London, has recently completed a procurement process for extending its Student Work-Based Learning Platform. The procurement falls under the 'goods' industry category, focusing on software packages pertinent to the higher education sector. The contract, entitled "Student Work based Learning Platform Extension," has reached the award update stage as of 26th May 2026, with the procurement method identified as a direct award. This decision was rationalised by the need to ensure the new platform aligns with existing systems and cyber security accreditations, maintaining student data safety. The contract period is set to start on 29th May 2026 and lasts until 28th May 2027, with potential annual extensions up to five years.

This procurement presents significant opportunities for businesses involved in software development, particularly those who specialise in higher education technology solutions. With the contract awarded to PRACTERA LTD, a small to medium enterprise (SME), there is a clear indication that the University is open to engaging with smaller suppliers that have the intellectual property rights necessary for bespoke solutions. Such opportunities could be lucrative for tech companies looking to expand their portfolio within the educational sector, especially those capable of ensuring seamless integration with existing infrastructure and who can meet rigorous data protection standards. Additionally, businesses with a strategic interest in long-term engagements could benefit from the planned contractual extensions, especially in light of the potential merger between the University of Greenwich and the University of Kent.
