## Summary

The procurement process for the Adobe ETLA 2026-2029 project, organised by the University of Sussex, has reached the award stage. This procurement, classified under the software package and information systems industry category, involves a direct award via the JISC framework, allowing the university to secure licenses for Adobe Creative Cloud. With a contract value of GBP 761,202.6, it was signed on 10th July 2026. The procurement method used was 'limited', with no prior publication of a call for competition due to its compliance with legal frameworks. This operation primarily serves the UK South East region, denoted as UKJ.

This tender provides significant business growth opportunities, particularly for companies involved in providing software solutions and support services. Although Jisc has already been awarded the contract, the criteria focus primarily on price, indicating a preference for cost-effective offerings. While the procurement process is now complete, it highlights the importance of strategic partnerships, like the collaboration with Jisc, which combines multiple universities' purchasing power for better negotiation outcomes. Businesses adept at forming alliances and offering competitive pricing within higher education sectors would have been well-placed to compete in this landscape.
