## Summary

The University of Edinburgh is the buying organisation for this procurement process titled "Oracle On Premise Database Support," which falls under the industry category of software support services. Located in Edinburgh, United Kingdom, this procurement has reached the award stage after proceeding through a negotiated procedure without prior publication. The contract, valued at £930,440.61, was signed on 19 May 2026 and is classified under the main procurement category of services. This specific process was conducted due to the need for additional deliveries by the original supplier, Oracle Corporation UK Ltd, who will provide ongoing support for the University's Oracle on-premise databases.

This tender presents considerable growth opportunities for businesses specialising in database support services, particularly those with experience in handling Oracle systems. However, given that the procurement method involved a limited procedure without a call for competition, it could be challenging for new entrants to gain a foothold. The contract being awarded to a large-scale supplier like Oracle Corporation UK Ltd suggests that similarly large or specialised companies, capable of meeting the stringent requirements and possessing the requisite expertise, would be well-suited to participate in such tenders in the future.
