## Summary

The University of Worcester procured a three-year licence agreement for APA PsycInfo and APA Psyc Articles. These are specialist education and training information services supporting the university’s academic and research activities. The requirement is delivered in Worcester, for the University of Worcester. The procurement covers one service lot and was bought by the university as a public-sector organisation. The selected service concerns access to named APA information resources rather than physical goods, construction or on-site training delivery. Businesses operating in academic information services, research databases, scholarly content licensing or institutional library resources would be the most relevant potential competitors for this requirement when it next reaches the market.

The procurement has been awarded and the tender is complete. The University of Worcester used a selective procedure, described as a below-threshold award under a framework, and the process was non-competitive. JISC SERVICES LIMITED was awarded the single lot on 1 August 2026. The contract was signed on 1 August 2026 and runs from 1 August 2026 to 31 July 2029. Its value is £57,128.80 excluding VAT, or £57,546 including VAT. The award is for services classified under CPV 80000000, education and training services. The contract is active and the award is active. The agreement provides a clear example of the university’s procurement route and spend for institutional access to APA PsycInfo and APA Psyc Articles.

This award indicates demand from the University of Worcester for institutional access to APA PsycInfo and APA Psyc Articles through a framework-based route. Competitors would need to provide, or lawfully arrange, access to both named APA resources and support a university-wide licence agreement. Relevant strengths would include scholarly database licensing, academic library or research-information services, and the operational capability to administer access for a higher-education institution. Suppliers should also be able to work through an applicable framework or comparable public-sector purchasing arrangement, because this requirement was awarded under a framework rather than through an open competition. Businesses offering only general training, unrelated education services or non-academic content would be less closely aligned with this buyer’s requirement.
