## Summary

Bath Spa University procured website content management services, including website hosting, website search-engine hosting, licensing and ongoing support. This is an IT services requirement covering the software and technical infrastructure needed to manage and publish the university’s web content, keep its websites hosted, provide hosted search functionality and maintain the associated licences and support arrangements. The buying organisation is Bath Spa University, based at Newton Park in Bath. Delivery was across the United Kingdom. The procurement was for services rather than goods or construction, with the requirement classified under IT services covering consulting, software development, internet and support. It was structured as a single requirement for the university’s web content and hosting environment.

The procurement has been awarded and the tender is complete. Bath Spa University used a direct award below the relevant threshold, without competition. The single requirement was awarded to Terminalfour Solutions Ltd, an SME, and the award is active. The contract was signed on 4 July 2025 and runs from 1 August 2025 to 31 July 2026. Its gross value is £83,582.81. The award covered the full requirement: website content management, website hosting, website search-engine hosting, licensing and support. The published evaluation route was a non-competitive direct award rather than an open tender, so there was no competitive assessment of alternative bids reported for this procurement.

This award indicates a buyer seeking an established digital platform provider able to supply a complete web estate service rather than an isolated development project. Relevant competitors would need credible website content-management software, secure and dependable hosting, hosted search capability, licensing administration and responsive technical support. Experience integrating these functions into a university or similarly complex public-sector website would strengthen a future proposition, particularly where multiple content publishers, governance requirements and high availability are involved. Suppliers should be able to demonstrate a stable product, effective service management and the capacity to support the full operating period. The direct-award route shows that a recognised, suitable platform and supplier fit mattered for this requirement, making clear product differentiation and evidence of reliable support important when the need returns.
