## Summary

Oxford Brookes University procured full access to JSTOR Archive Collections for use in its teaching, learning and research. This is a digital academic library resource rather than a supply of physical books or a general education service. The requirement covers access to the archive collections as a whole; the published description does not break this down into individual collections or user groups. The buying organisation is Oxford Brookes University, and the service is for its university community in Oxford. JISC was selected to provide the service. The procurement was categorised as services, with an education and training services classification, although the practical requirement is specifically for access to JSTOR’s scholarly archive content.

The procurement is complete and the contract is active. Oxford Brookes awarded the contract to JISC under a framework, using a selective route below the public procurement threshold. The contract was signed on 2 October 2026 and runs from 2 October 2026 to 30 July 2029. Its stated value is £65,062.73. The process was a single lot, awarded to one supplier. The published procurement information does not set out a scoring model or other evaluation criteria, so the basis for comparing suppliers cannot be described beyond the framework award route. No competition between suppliers at this call-off is indicated.

For suppliers tracking Oxford Brookes’ demand, this award shows a need for institutional access to scholarly digital archives that support teaching, learning and research. A credible competitor when this specific requirement next reaches the market would need to offer access to a substantial JSTOR archive collection and deliver it as a dependable service for a university. Experience serving higher-education libraries and supporting academic use across teaching and research would be relevant to demonstrating fit. The route used here was an award under a framework, so suppliers would also need to be positioned to serve the university through an applicable framework arrangement. The contract was awarded to JISC, a large supplier, indicating that the requirement was met through an established provider; the published terms do not identify further technical or accreditation requirements.
