Procurement pipeline
The Jisc procurement pipeline is a list of larger* value contracts that it expects to procure anytime within the next 5 years. These could be existing contracts in place which are likely to be re-procured, or they could be new requirements.
However, by being a longer-term look-ahead at the needs of the business, this list is subject to change, and details provided in the pipeline may be amended as and when improved information arises. This includes using compliant frameworks if deemed suitable.
