Summary of the contracting process

The University of Bedfordshire is seeking to establish a framework agreement titled "Provide Non DSA Funded NMH support for disabled students," aimed at sourcing non-medical helper support services. Located in Luton, England, this procurement falls under the health and safety services category. The procurement process is currently in the award stage with a contract period set to commence from 1st August 2019 and conclude on 28th February 2021. Interested suppliers must have previously registered and expressed interest through the University's procurement portal by 21st January 2018 to be considered against the framework agreement, though no guarantees of work have been provided.

With a limited number of suppliers set to be included in this framework, companies that can demonstrate high-quality service and responsiveness will be well-positioned to secure contracts for providing vital support.
