## Summary

The University of Glasgow has completed a direct award procurement process for the renewal of the CMIS Timetabling Application Licence, designated as PURCH2728 – PPE1003310. This contract, valued at £208,460, was awarded to Advanced Business Software Group Ltd, a large-scale supplier based in Birmingham, and became active on 5th June 2025. The procurement was conducted under a limited procedure, specifically without prior publication of a call for competition, due to technical reasons cited under Regulations 2015-33 (1) (b) (ii). The procurement, classified under CPV code 48517000, was processed in the region of UKM82, with key roles involved being the University as the buyer and Glasgow Sheriff Court & Justice of the Peace Court as the review body.

This tender offers business growth opportunities particularly for companies specialising in educational software solutions, digital timetabling applications, and related technical services. Large firms with the capability to address technical specifications without competition are well-placed to benefit, although this specific contract involved a direct award due to technical constraints dictated by regulations. Suppliers able to offer innovation in software solutions or possess niche technical advantages in education-related IT services could position themselves favourably for similar future opportunities. The process affirms the potential for advantageous contracts tailored to specific capabilities and compliance with technical requirements.
