## Summary

The procurement process for the "Microsoft Enterprise Agreement (Education)" was conducted by East Renfrewshire Council, located in Giffnock, UK. The contract, aimed at providing Microsoft Licensing, falls under the 'goods' industry category specifically associated with IT and software. The procurement was completed in the award stage through a limited method, namely an award procedure without prior publication of a call for competition. This decision utilized the Crown Commercial Service Technology Products and Associated Services framework agreement, Lot 3: Software, with a mini competition conducted by the CCS. The contract was awarded to Phoenix Software with a value of GBP 675,000, and was signed on 17th July 2025. The project was covered by GPA, and all electronic bids were from EU bidders. The contract items were to be delivered in the UKM83 region.

This tender offers substantial opportunities for businesses within the software licensing and IT services sector. Companies that specialise in educational licensing agreements or have established partnerships within public sector frameworks would find it particularly advantageous. Large businesses with the capacity to manage substantial software agreements, such as those involving enterprise-level licensing and support, would be well-suited to these opportunities. As the procurement process was part of a framework agreement handled by a central purchasing body, businesses familiar with engaging through similar frameworks might navigate this process more efficiently and effectively.
