Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process for the "Employee Benefits" contract, initiated by Durham University, is aimed at providing a fully managed service for a staff salary sacrifice scheme within the miscellaneous services industry category. The contract was awarded on 29 March 2017, with a total value of £50,355, and covers the period from 25 May 2017 to 24 May 2020. The procurement method involved a mini-competition from an ESPO framework, with the relevant delivery addresses located in Durham, England.

This tender presents an opportunity for businesses specialising in employee benefits services to engage with a leading academic institution. Companies that offer comprehensive managed services, particularly those familiar with salary sacrifice schemes, would be well-suited to compete in such procurements. As larger organisations may dominate the landscape, smaller enterprises with niche expertise in employee benefits innovations can also find a foothold in this sector, especially given the growing demand for such services in public institutions.
