## Summary

Coventry University initiated a public procurement process to renew their Core Appraisal system, specifically the One Advanced Core Clear Review, for a duration of 12 months. The contract, awarded without competition as it falls below the UK Government's procurement threshold of £207,720 including VAT, seeks to deliver critical performance management, objectives, and feedback systems. This contract, valued at £95,460 gross (inclusive of VAT), was signed on 17th August 2026 and will be active from 1st September 2026 to 31st August 2027. The procurement falls under the 'goods' category, targeting software packages and information systems, and involves direct procurement. The procurement process was completed with the award to ONEADVANCED LIMITED, signifying the process's transition into the contract fulfilment stage.

This tender represents a strategic opportunity for businesses within the software development and performance management sectors, particularly those capable of delivering comprehensive information systems. Though the tender was not competitively bid, similar procurement opportunities could arise that require competitive bidding. Businesses that deliver end-to-end software solutions, especially in educational or institutional environments, would find such opportunities favourable for growth. Understanding the procurement methodology employed – 'below threshold without competition'– can help businesses strategise effectively for similar tenders in the future.

## Notice

The time and cost of change is outweighed by any cost savings from a competitive procurement process. The value of the contract is less than the UK Government threshold of PS207,720.00 including VAT for running a competitive procurement process.
