E-Marketplace contract under review
24 July 2023
The eMarketplace finance system the University recently rolled out is being discontinued, with alternative options now being considered.
Our eMarketplace provider Medius recently informed us that the software we currently use will no longer be supported after 31 December 2025.
An alternative software solution will therefore need to be secured before this date.
The decision to switch to eMarketplace was taken by the University in 2018 when the software was owned by Wax Digital. Wax Digital was taken over by Medius in 2019, and the new provider subsequently made the decision to offer only its own software beyond 2025.
Options review
No decision has yet been made on which alternative software option the university will use long term, or when it will switch.
A number of options are being considered, including switching to an alternative software solution operated by Medius. These options will be assessed over the coming months and further information will follow in due course.
