Request for Information (RFI) relating to Education, Research, Technology, Innovation Open Framework
The procurement contact named on the official notice.
JISC publishes Education & Training work continuously — 33 notices, roughly one every 9 days. This is a stream to watch, not a cycle to wait for.
19% of JISC’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 →
