This means each of the successfully awarded Suppliers will be awarded a ranked position of first, second or third.

The University will perform an assessment on Suppliers including but not limited to capacity to deliver the work, current lead times, ability to meet the required timescales, methodology/approach, specific service requirements, key milestones, performance indicators or any other parameters, conflicts of interest etc. that affect the ability of the University to ensure the contract is delivered within any possible constraints over the term of the agreement. Pricing is fixed and based upon tendered pricing."
