Notice Information

Notice Title

1999 Provision of Career Platform Solution for De Montfort University, Leicester

Notice Description

A market leading careers system is a key element for the University achieving strong overall student destination outcomes, as measured by the Graduate Outcomes Survey. DMU currently has room for improvement on both Graduate Outcomes results rates and the amount of DMU students progressing into highly skilled employment. A careers system that provides a better student experience, and crucially delivers on improving our employer engagement capabilities could be seen as a game changer. With so many DMU students falling into a widening participation category, it is essential that we are providing them with market leading careers technology that will place them on a level playing field with more privileged peers. The University needs to offer a careers service platform that has a strong competitive positioning in the marketplace, which will frame the University's future offer over the next decade and best supports the Empowering University strategy. This consequently requires a careers system that supports this strategic ambition and delivers the flexibility to enable the University Careers Team to deliver on its strategic aims. All Tenderers should have due regard for these wider high level strategic aims alongside responding to the stated Functional or Non-Functional Requirements at Schedule 2 forming part of the ITT. Full details of the University's Requirements can be found in the Specification (Schedule 2). Additional information: Is a Recurrent Procurement Type? : No
