evasys is pleased to announce that the University of York has selected evasys as its institution-wide platform for module evaluation and student feedback, following a competitive procurement process through a Softcat Framework Agreement.

Why York chose evasys

University of York went to market with two clear priorities:

  • 1

    Closing the feedback loop for students, addressing NSS results that showed low confidence that feedback led to action

  • 2

    Creating institutional consistency and oversight, replacing multiple tools and approaches used across 28 departments

After reviewing competitor platforms, speaking with peer institutions and running live demonstrations, York selected evasys for its higher-education expertise, confidence in delivery and value for money.

Professor Steve King, Associate Pro-Vice-Chancellor (Education and Students), commented:

evasys stood out because we weren’t just buying software, we were working with people who genuinely understand how universities operate and could guide us through a complex implementation with confidence.”

Implementation and early impact

  • evasys launched across 988 modules in its first semester, despite a compressed timeline

  • Achieved a 37% weighted response rate overall, with many modules reaching 70–80% participation

  • More than 80% of modules successfully closed the feedback loop with students in the first cycle

  • Academic and professional services staff report the platform is easy to use, intuitive and time-saving

Steve King added:

“evasys gives us clear, actionable insight and makes it easy to demonstrate to students that their feedback is being read and acted upon.”

Next steps for University of York and evasys

With module evaluation now embedded, York plans to extend evasys to programme-level, pulse and institution-wide surveys, supporting a broader cultural shift toward transparent, action-led student feedback. Additionally, the university is considering use of the evasys/Student Voice AI partnership to gather machine learning AI analysis of open comments.

Bruce Johnson, Managing Director at evasys, said:

We’re delighted to be working with the University of York following such a rigorous selection process. Their focus on trust, consistency and visible action aligns perfectly with what evasys is designed to deliver, and the early engagement levels are a strong endorsement of the partnership.”
