## Summary

London Metropolitan University bought a renewal of licences giving users access to the LinkedIn Learning e-learning platform. The requirement covers the licence renewal itself, rather than a broader training or learning-platform service. The buying organisation is the university, and the intended delivery location is the United Kingdom. This is a digital learning subscription requirement: suppliers with access to the LinkedIn Learning platform and the ability to provide institutional licences are the closest fit. The procurement was arranged through an established framework, so the commercial route was framework-based rather than a competition advertised to the wider market.

The procurement is complete and the contract was awarded to Academia Limited. The award is active, and the contract is active. The university signed the contract on 17 September 2026. Its value is £48,400. The tender used a limited procedure without a prior call for competition, with the purchase made through an established framework. The requirement was handled as a single lot, although that lot is recorded as cancelled; the award itself is active. Price was the stated award criterion. One bid was recorded. No contract period dates or duration are stated in the procurement details.

This award demonstrates demand at London Metropolitan University for renewing institutional access to LinkedIn Learning, rather than buying a new platform or commissioning bespoke course development. A credible competitor for a future renewal would need to supply the relevant platform licences and support access for a university user base. The procurement was placed through an established framework and awarded on price, so suppliers should be able to participate in an appropriate framework and offer competitive licence pricing. The recorded competition comprised one bid, while the selected supplier is a large company; this indicates the value of framework access and the ability to meet the university’s licensing requirement, rather than evidence of a requirement for specialist teaching, consultancy or bespoke content capabilities.
