## Summary

The University of Strathclyde procured renewal of its MATLAB software licence for 2026–27. The requirement is for commercial off-the-shelf software licensing, supplied to the university in Glasgow. It was placed as a call-off from the Southern Universities Purchasing Consortium’s Software Licence Resellers Agreement and Consultancy Services framework, under its commercial off-the-shelf software lot. The procurement is therefore relevant to software licence resellers able to supply MATLAB to a UK university through the applicable framework route. The published scope identifies a licence renewal; it does not describe a separate software development or consultancy assignment.

The procurement is complete and the contract was awarded to Academia Ltd. The contract is active and was signed on 28 August 2026, with an awarded value of £149,113.90. The requirement is titled MATLAB Renewal 2026–27, but no contract start or end dates are recorded. It was conducted as an open-procedure call-off under the Southern Universities Purchasing Consortium framework for software licence resellers and consultancy services, in the commercial off-the-shelf software lot. One bid was received for the lot. No evaluation criteria or separate eligibility requirements are stated in the available process details, so the basis for selecting the supplier cannot be described further.

This award provides a concrete example of the University of Strathclyde buying a substantial MATLAB licence renewal through a public-sector software reseller framework. For suppliers seeking to compete when this requirement returns to market, the relevant capability is supplying and renewing commercial MATLAB licences for a university, with the ability to contract through the applicable framework route. The selected supplier was a software reseller, indicating that the requirement was met through licence supply rather than a separately described software build or consulting project. The single bid recorded also shows that this award attracted one offer; it does not establish that future competitions will have the same level of competition. Suppliers should assess whether they can meet the university’s licensing requirement and framework conditions at this scale.
