## Summary

The University of Glasgow, acting as the contracting authority, has completed a direct award for a pilot extension project titled "PURCH2789 - PPE1003724 Direct Award for a Pilot extension for Cadmus Individual Assessments and Exams." This project falls under the services category in the education sector. Geographically, the project is based in Glasgow, UKM82. The procurement process was conducted as a limited procedure without prior publication due to technical reasons, and has reached the award stage, with the contract being signed on the 20th of August, 2025. The awarded contract is valued at £104,288 GBP and was issued to Vericus Pty Ltd.
