When this comes round again

Bournemouth University has published 17 Software & IT Systems notices, about every 4 months. On that rhythm the next one is expected around November 2026.

7% of Bournemouth 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 →
