Lot Information
Travel Safety System (Technology Platform & Incident Response)
Renewal: Two x 12 months extensions
Travel Risk Consultancy ServicesRenewal: Two x one year extension
Planning Information
Informal PME discussions with suppliers attending the Universities Safety and Health Association Conference. The current context and needs of the Group, and how the market and technology have changed since the University last tendered for such services. The higher education sector is currently facing significant financial pressures, presenting ongoing constraints on budgets and resources, as well as a (probably) temporary reduction in travel activity. As a result, there is a heightened need to ensure that every expenditure delivers maximum value for money. Flexibility in delivery and clear value for money matters more than ever. We require services that are tailored to our specific requirements and that fit in with what we already have in place. By harmonising new solutions with existing systems and processes, we can address our needs while making the most of current resources, leading to a more joined-up and effective result. We have made progress under the previous contract in getting the engagement of academics and professional services with travel risk and the high level of satisfaction we have from colleagues with the current arrangements. It is important this procurement builds on this success. Any future supplier needs to understand the needs of universities and research institutions. That means being flexible with schedules, open about what we need and mindful of the options and unique pressures faced by academic colleagues.
