## Summary

The University of Edinburgh is exploring the market for a Curriculum Management System: an integrated software and information-systems solution supporting self-service for academic staff, professional staff and students. The requirement is intended to improve how curriculum information and related activities are managed across the university. This is a technology procurement, classified under software packages and information systems, rather than a works or facilities contract. Delivery will be for the University of Edinburgh in Edinburgh. The buyer is seeking views from suppliers on current and emerging capabilities, products and solutions, including different approaches to delivering and supporting a curriculum management platform. Suppliers with relevant higher-education, student-services or enterprise software experience may therefore find the scope relevant.

This procurement is at the planning and preliminary market-engagement stage. The buyer has issued a Prior Information Notice to understand the market and inform strategic planning and any future procurement strategy; it is not a call for competition or a commitment to award a contract. Participation is voluntary and responses are to be provided at suppliers’ own cost. The University anticipates that, if it proceeds, a procurement could take place at any point within the next 12 to 18 months. A future notice is expected on 1 October 2027. The planned approach is for a single integrated solution, but no tender procedure, evaluation criteria, contract value, contract duration or bid deadline has been set out at this stage.

The engagement should suit software providers, system integrators and specialist education-technology suppliers able to demonstrate a single integrated platform rather than disconnected tools. Relevant preparation includes showing the capabilities of current and emerging curriculum-management products, explaining implementation and delivery approaches, and addressing self-service workflows for academic and professional staff and students. Suppliers with experience integrating university systems, supporting complex curriculum information, and delivering secure, scalable services in a higher-education environment are likely to be well placed when a formal procurement is considered. The buyer welcomes participation from all interested suppliers, so businesses can use the engagement to present their solution, delivery model and market insight before any future competition is designed.
