University of Surrey

The complainant has requested information in relation to a contract for a virtual learning environment. This included the contract, tender responses, evaluation matrices and documents provided as part of the sales process. The University of Surrey refused the request on the basis of section 43(2) of the FOIA. The Commissioner’s decision is that for the majority of the information, including tender documents, the University has correctly refused the request under section 43(2) and the public interest favours withholding the information. For a small number of documents relating to the tendering exercise and the evaluation of the tenders the Commissioner finds the exemption has not been shown to be engaged. The Commissioner requires the public authority to disclose the documents listed in the confidential annex with the tab on price evaluation redacted from the evaluation spreadsheets.

FOI 43: Complaint partly upheld

Decision notice: fs50842331
