## Summary

The University of the West of England procured additional senior software developer services. The requirement was for additional senior developer days to support the university’s software development needs, delivered for the university in Bristol. The procurement was arranged by the university as the public-sector buyer. The work falls within software development services and is service-based rather than the supply of goods or construction works. The requirement was structured as a single lot, covering the additional developer support as one package. It is relevant to software development consultancies, specialist development firms and individual providers with the capability to supply senior developer expertise to a higher education organisation.

This procurement is complete and has been awarded through a direct, below-threshold procedure without competition. DIEGESIS LIMITED was selected as the supplier. The contract was signed on 21 July 2026 and runs from 22 July 2026 to 31 August 2026. Its value is £29,910 excluding VAT, or £35,892 including VAT. The award is active and relates to the single lot for additional senior developer services. The published outcome records a direct award route rather than a competitive tender, so the process did not involve bids being evaluated against competing offers. The requirement covered additional senior developer days during the contract period.

This award indicates a defined requirement for senior software development capacity within the University of the West of England, particularly where the buyer needs additional developer days for a short, focused period. A credible competitor for a future requirement would need demonstrable senior-level software development capability, the capacity to provide experienced developers at short notice, and the ability to work effectively within a university environment. Relevant firms include software development consultancies and small specialist providers, as the selected supplier is recorded as an SME. Suppliers should be able to explain their technical expertise, senior developer availability, delivery approach and experience supporting an organisation’s existing software systems.
