## Summary

The University of Aberdeen is conducting a procurement process for the "Provision of Technical IT Services," specifically aimed at obtaining IT training services that cannot be provided in-house. This process, which is currently at the award stage, is part of the services category, which primarily concerns the education industry. The tender was issued under the open procurement method, allowing any interested parties to submit their proposals. The tender period concluded on 6 June 2017, with the contract awarded on 29 June 2017, valued at £70,000 for a duration of one year, with potential for extension based on performance.

This tender represents a significant opportunity for businesses specialising in IT training and technical services, particularly those equipped to deliver training in networking, server administration, security, programming, and related technologies. Companies with a strong background in educational services or substantial experience in similar projects would be well-suited to participate. The estimated annual expenditure of around £35,000 indicates a stable opportunity for service providers to grow alongside the University's needs, potentially leading to long-term collaborations.
