This is a large award for Postal & Telecommunications — above three-quarters of comparable contracts. Based on 2,074 valued Postal & Telecommunications tenders in our corpus.

When this comes round again

THE OPEN UNIVERSITY has published 6 Postal & Telecommunications notices, about every 3 months. On that rhythm the next one is expected around November 2026.

23% of THE OPEN UNIVERSITY’s awards go to a supplier it has used before.

Which is the argument for getting on the list rather than winning this one. The incumbent is rarely the last winner — it is the roster. See the retention odds by category →
