Excelsoft Technologies partners with AQA Education
May-28-2026

Excelsoft Technologies has entered into a strategic partnership with AQA Education (AQA), the United Kingdom’s largest awarding body, to jointly develop a next-generation e-marking platform for high-stakes assessments. The engagement marks a significant validation of the company’s established e-marking platform, which AQA selected following a rigorous multi-stage evaluation process conducted over several months. Building on its existing intellectual property, the two organisations will co-develop an enhanced solution tailored to AQA’s requirements for large-scale, high-stakes assessment.

The new platform will combine its proven e-marking technology with AQA’s decades of assessment expertise and operational insight. It will progressively replace AQA’s three incumbent emarking systems with a unified, modern platform designed to support the secure, reliable and consistent digital evaluation of handwritten examination scripts at scale.

Once fully implemented, the platform is expected to support the marking of around 1.2 crore student scripts annually, involving around 40,000 examiners, and will play a critical role in supporting one of the world’s most trusted qualification systems. The multi-year, multi-million-pound contract reflects the scale and strategic importance of the engagement, further strengthening its presence in the global assessment technology sector.

Excelsoft Technologies is a global vertical SaaS company focused on the learning and assessment market.
