Verified opportunity overview

South East Technological University is establishing a single-supplier two-year framework or public contract for finite-element-analysis and computational-fluid-dynamics software. The official procurement workspace remains the controlling source for supplier decisions and current documents.

Current status and key dates

The opportunity lifecycle is open. The controlling submission deadline is 28 August 2026, 12:00 Europe/Dublin; status must be reopened before any later publication or supplier action.

Scope and deliverables

Supply and support finite-element-analysis and computational-fluid-dynamics software for SETU’s teaching, research or engineering use. This description is deliberately bounded to what the official public workspace states and does not extend unstated deliverables.

Lots and contract structure

One single-supplier software framework; licence, module and user packaging remain controlled by the tender documents. Complete lot schedules, quantities, specifications and allocation mechanics remain within the live procurement documents.

Supplier requirements

Software functionality, licensing, academic use, support, compatibility, training, information security and tender-submission requirements remain in the RFT. Suppliers must use the official documents rather than this research brief to determine eligibility and compliance.

Submission and award method

The procedure is Open procedure using MEAT. Refer to the current official procurement workspace and tender documents. Award criteria, response forms and mandatory declarations remain in the procurement pack.

Value explanation

The displayed value is EUR 300,000. An estimate is not guaranteed expenditure, supplier revenue, call-off volume or realised award value.

Amendments and status history

The public workspace should be checked for later clarifications, deadline changes, document replacements, cancellations, awards and other status notices before acting.

Supplier relevance

Relevant to engineering-simulation software vendors and resellers with academic FEA and CFD licensing and support capability. Relevance does not establish eligibility, capacity, selection or likely award for any specific supplier.

Procurement data limitations and missing details

The EUR 300,000 estimate is not guaranteed expenditure. No software vendor, framework appointment, licence volume or realised spend is inferred. Missing facts are preserved as unknowns and are not inferred from comparable procurements, market prices or supplier assumptions.
