Procurement Information
This service is bespoke to the University and is for the extension of existing supply of current integrated payment platform. A change of supplier would oblige the contracting authority to acquire suppliers having different technical characteristics which would result in incompatibility or disproportionate technical difficulties in operation and business delivery. The rationale for this request includes the following: - The implementation was a 6-9 month process and would result in unnecessary additional costs and not offer value for money. - A new supplier may require new hardware to be Purchased at an additional cost. - This large and complex system is now critically embedded within the department. A change in supplier would result in significant technical difficulties alongside multiple operational issues.
