## Summary

The University of the West of England procured senior testing services for Salesforce. The requirement was for a UK Senior Test Analyst, covering software testing activity associated with the university’s Salesforce environment. The work was delivered in the United Kingdom for the university, a public higher-education authority based at Frenchay Campus in Bristol. The procurement was categorised as services, with the specific activity classified as software testing. This is a specialist information technology and quality assurance requirement rather than a general software development project. Businesses with experience testing Salesforce implementations, supporting enterprise systems and providing senior test analyst capability would find the subject matter relevant. The buyer’s requirement focused on an individual or service capable of carrying out senior-level testing work for its Salesforce platform.

The procurement has been completed and the contract was awarded to PROLIFICS TESTING UK LIMITED. The award is active and relates to a single lot. The contract was signed on 6 July 2026 and ran from 13 July 2026 to 7 August 2026. Its value was £23,630 excluding VAT, or £28,356 including VAT. The procurement was a below-threshold direct award without competition, using the direct procurement method. The contract period covered the Salesforce senior test analyst requirement described in the tender. The award was made on 6 July 2026. The recorded tender status is complete, while the contract status is active. No competitive tender evaluation basis is recorded for this direct award.

This procurement provides a clear example of the University of the West of England’s demand for short-term, senior Salesforce testing capability. A credible competitor for similar work would need demonstrable software testing expertise, practical Salesforce experience and the ability to provide a senior test analyst who can work on an enterprise platform. The successful supplier was recorded as a large organisation, indicating that the buyer accepted delivery through an established testing provider rather than a small specialist individual supplier. Relevant businesses are likely to include software testing consultancies, Salesforce quality assurance specialists and technology firms with experienced testing personnel. Capability to support a defined assignment for a public-sector university, understand organisational systems and deliver testing services in the UK would strengthen a supplier’s position when this requirement is considered again.
