Education Authority · Education
In brief
Education Authority awarded IT and software work to Mri Software Limited on 31 March 2026.
Built from the notice's own fields. Always check the official notice before you bid.
What the notice says
To ensure continuity of critical and emergency response maintenance, the current
proprietary Manhattan system must be retained beyond 1 April 2026. Development of live
reporting functionality within Term Service Contractors’ systems cannot be completed by
this date, and as Manhattan is proprietary, its maintenance cannot be transferred to
another supplier. A Direct Award Contract is therefore required to mitigate operational risk
and maintain uninterrupted service delivery until the new solution is fully implemented,
with an anticipated IWMS Go-Live in October 2026
