## Summary

London Metropolitan University procured an annual subscription to TARGETconnect, a subscription service. The service is intended for use by the university; the contract covers delivery in the United Kingdom. The buyer is London Metropolitan University, a public university based in London. The procurement concerns continued access to a named subscription platform rather than physical goods or construction work.

The procurement is complete and the contract is active. London Metropolitan University made a direct award without competition under a below-threshold procedure. GTI Futures Limited was selected as supplier. The contract was signed on 19 March 2026 and runs from 19 March 2026 to 18 March 2029. Its value is £61,995 excluding VAT and £74,394 including VAT. There was one lot, covering the annual TARGETconnect subscription for 2026–2029. The published data gives no award date separate from the contract signature date.

The award shows that London Metropolitan University buys a multi-year annual subscription to TARGETconnect, through a direct award without competition. Suppliers seeking to compete for this requirement when it returns to market would need to provide the named subscription service and demonstrate that they can maintain access and support across a multi-year term. GTI Futures Limited, an SME, was selected, showing that a smaller supplier can serve this requirement. The commercial opportunity is a university subscription service delivered in the UK, rather than a project involving physical delivery or construction. Credible providers are those able to supply TARGETconnect itself or meet the university’s requirement for an equivalent subscription, though equivalence is not stated in this award.
