## Summary

The Education Training Collective is procuring a cloud-based device and classroom management service for its group of Further Education colleges and independent training providers in the North-East of England. The requirement is for one intuitive, reliable platform to support the effective management of devices used in classroom study across the organisation. The procurement is for educational software, classified under CPV 48190000, with delivery across the North-East of England. The buyer is The Education Training Collective, a public-sector education group based at Stockton Riverside College in Thornaby. This opportunity is relevant to suppliers that provide cloud-hosted platforms for managing classroom devices and supporting teaching and learning environments across multiple education and training sites.

The procurement reached tender: the buyer invited offers through a below-threshold open competition. It is a single-lot requirement. Enquiries were due by 21 September 2026 at 17:00, and offers were due by 28 September 2026 at 16:00. Electronic submission was allowed through the buyer’s online procurement portal. The estimated value is £37,500 excluding VAT, or £45,000 including VAT. The initial contract period runs from 1 November 2026 to 31 October 2027, with provision for two further 12-month renewals, giving a maximum possible end date of 31 October 2029. Offers are evaluated on quality at 70% and price at 30%.

This opportunity suits software suppliers with an established cloud-based device and classroom management platform designed for education. Strong candidates are likely to be able to provide a single service that is intuitive and reliable for use across Further Education colleges and independent training providers, while supporting the effective management of devices used in classroom study. The requirement may appeal to suppliers experienced in serving multi-site education organisations and coordinating a consistent platform across different colleges or training providers. Businesses should be able to demonstrate that their product is an educational software solution rather than a general-purpose device management tool, and that it can support classroom-based use at organisational scale. The published evaluation places greater emphasis on quality than price.
