## Summary

The procurement process detailed involves the London Borough of Camden, which sought a Management Information System (MIS) tailored for Camden's primary and secondary schools. This initiative falls under the services industry category, specifically IT services, consulting, software development, Internet, and support. The process was completed with the contract awarded on 1st April 2026, with a procurement method labelled as limited, indicating an award procedure without a prior call for competition. The contract, valued at £466,858.40, was awarded to The Key Support Services Ltd, a large-scale supplier based in London, UK. Despite the initial status of cancellation for the lot due to the selection of an existing single supplier, the contract progresses with potential extension options available for 12 months, subject to internal council approval. The overall objective was to implement a scalable, secure, and user-friendly cloud-based MIS to enhance administrative, statutory, and educational processes within the authority.

This tender presents opportunities for businesses involved in the development and implementation of IT services, especially those specialising in educational technology solutions. Companies focusing on cloud-based solutions with robust scalability and user-friendliness could find future opportunities arising from similar public sector requirements. Given that the procurement method was limited, involving direct awards to known suppliers, businesses looking to compete in such tenders should consider aligning with established frameworks like the CCS Vertical Applications Solutions to increase visibility and accessibility for future contracts. Larger organisations that can offer comprehensive MIS solutions to meet the varied and dynamic needs of educational institutions are likely to be well-suited for similar opportunities in other local or regional authorities.

## Notice

A cloud-based Management Information System (MIS) is required for use in both primary and secondary schools within the authority. The system must be scalable, secure, and user-friendly, with pricing models that reflect the differing needs of primary and secondary education providers. The objective is to procure a single MIS solution (or set of compatible solutions) that enables schools to manage key administrative, statutory, and educational tasks efficiently while supporting collaboration across the authority.
