## Summary

The University of Exeter procured Hudl licences as a service for its requirements in Exeter. The awarded service is classified under contract administration services, indicating that the purchase covers the administration and provision of Hudl’s licensed offering rather than goods, construction or a broader consultancy assignment. Hudl, based in Islington, is the named supplier and is recorded as a small or medium-sized enterprise. The requirement is therefore relevant to businesses that provide Hudl licensing, manage subscriptions or support the associated contract administration. It is less relevant to general IT suppliers without access to Hudl’s licensing arrangements, or to businesses focused on physical products, building works or unrelated professional services.

This procurement has been awarded and the tender is complete. The University of Exeter used a direct award below the applicable threshold, without competition. Hudl was selected as the supplier and the contract was signed on 26 August 2026. The contract runs from 1 September 2026 to 1 September 2027 and has a value of £39,446. The procurement contains one completed lot. The award is active and the contract is active. The recorded procurement category is services, with the requirement classified as contract administration services. The process therefore represents a single-supplier purchase rather than a competitively evaluated multi-lot opportunity. Hudl’s selection shows that the buyer obtained the required licensing service through a non-competitive below-threshold route.

For a supplier assessing future demand from the University of Exeter, this award demonstrates an identified requirement for Hudl licences and associated contract administration services. A credible competitor would need to supply or administer Hudl’s licensed offering, understand the requirements of a university buyer and manage the commercial and administrative obligations attached to a subscription-style service. The award also shows that a small or medium-sized enterprise can be selected for this type of requirement. Businesses with established Hudl licensing access, relevant account-management capability and experience supporting institutional customers would be best placed to compete if the requirement is later exposed to competition. General software resellers without Hudl capability, or suppliers offering unrelated IT services, would be less closely aligned with this specific demand.
