## Summary

The University of Gloucestershire, based at Park Campus in Cheltenham, conducted a procurement process for a cloud-based academic timetabling system, classified under scheduling and productivity software (CPV code 48330000). The tender, titled "Cloud based academic timetabling system," reached the award stage on 29th May 2026, with the resulting contract awarded using a limited procurement method. This method involved a direct award without prior advertisement due to the proprietary nature of the TimeEdit software, which restricted supply to the original supplier. The contract, valued at £242,921, includes a term of three years with the potential for a twelve-month extension. Although the initial phase of the procurement identified additional related lots, these were subsequently cancelled.

This procurement opportunity primarily benefits large-scale software vendors specialising in niche academic scheduling solutions, exemplified by the award to TimeEdit AB. The direct award indicates limited competition but highlights the importance of offering specialised, intellectual property-rich solutions. Such contracts enable suppliers to secure stable, long-term relationships with educational institutions, enhancing market presence and financial stability. Businesses looking to leverage IP exclusivity or develop niche software offerings for educational institutions may find such procurement processes beneficial for growth and innovation in the education technology sector.
