## Summary

Cardiff University has completed a procurement process for its "Targetted Support" programme, classified under education services and conducted in the UK, specifically in the Cardiff region. The process utilised a limited procurement method, which involved a call-off from the Healthcare Trust Framework without prior publication of a competitive call. This award contracted the Nous Group to deliver specified services within the programme. The contract was signed on 2nd September 2025 and is valued at £291,500. The procurement process falls outside the usual directives' scope, as indicated by its legal classification.

This tender process is a promising opportunity for businesses operating within the educational services sector, especially those adept in working under frameworks such as the Healthcare Trust Framework. While Cardiff University served as the contracting authority, the process showcased the potential for small and medium enterprises (SMEs) to engage in public sector opportunities, evidenced by the successful award to Nous Group, an SME. Companies with expertise in targeted support services geared towards educational hubs may consider similar tenders for growth and expansion in public procurement projects.
