Why this procedure was chosen
The direct award approach is necessary because ATT's current Microsoft Volume Licensing agreement expires on 28/02/2026. Running a full competitive process within the remaining timeframe would risk service disruption and loss of access to critical Microsoft 365 services across 22 academies and the central office. These services underpin teaching, learning, and operational continuity. To mitigate this, ATT used the SUPC SLRA Lot 1 framework and applied the desktop calculator methodology (90% price, 10% relationship management, product knowledge, and added value) to identify the most economically advantageous supplier. Phoenix Software Ltd ranked first, ensuring best value and compliance within the time constraints.
