## Summary

St Joseph Catholic Multi Academy Trust procured a fully integrated procure-to-pay service for its education operations. The requirement covers compliant requisitioning, approval workflows, purchase order creation, invoicing, budget control and audit support across the purchasing lifecycle. The system is intended to reduce administrative work, strengthen financial governance, improve audit readiness and increase automation. It must integrate with digital marketplaces, including punch-out and optionally punch-in functionality, and with commonly used finance systems in the education sector. This is a business software and implementation service, classified as procurement software and services supplied by business organisations. Delivery is across the United Kingdom, for the Trust, whose registered locality is Liverpool.

The procurement is complete and was awarded through a selective route under a framework, without a competitive call-off. One lot was awarded to PLANERGY Ltd. on 8 June 2026. The award and contract value is £56,595 excluding VAT, or £70,744 including VAT; these figures are not totals across multiple awards. The contract was signed on 28 July 2026 and runs from 1 September 2026 to 31 August 2029, with an option to extend for a fourth and fifth year, potentially to 31 August 2031. The contract is active. Evaluation details recorded for this award identify the procurement as a services requirement, with the framework route determining the award rather than a competitive call-off.

This opportunity demonstrates demand from a multi-academy trust for an end-to-end procure-to-pay platform rather than a standalone purchasing tool. Suppliers well placed for a future requirement would offer proven requisition, approval, purchase-order, invoicing, budget-control and audit functionality, with strong workflow automation and clear governance controls. Credible providers would also need practical experience integrating with digital marketplaces through punch-out and potentially punch-in connections, alongside finance systems commonly used by education organisations. The requirement suits software companies and implementation partners able to support an education-sector customer across the full purchasing lifecycle, demonstrate reliable integration capability and provide services at multi-year contract scale. Familiarity with public-sector compliance, audit readiness and financial controls would strengthen a supplier’s position.
