This open procurement process involves advertising services as classified under CPV code 79341000, with the tender period concluding on 11th December 2018. The potential contract value is approximately £1,390,000, with a contract duration starting from 21st January 2019 and extending for a period of three years, with an option to extend for a further two years. Located in Portsmouth, South East England, the University employs high standards in recruiting for over 600 vacancies annually, predominantly advertising externally to attract talent. This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses that specialise in recruitment advertising and related services, especially those that can negotiate competitive rates with various publishing platforms. Companies with capabilities in strategic consultancy concerning recruitment advertising will find this an ideal prospect. Suppliers that can demonstrate proven experience, excellent customer service, and the ability to adapt to market changes will be particularly well-positioned to compete for this contract, fostering a beneficial relationship with the University of Portsmouth's Human Resources Department. ## Notice The University of Portsmouth has on average 600 staff vacancies per year, with approximately 91% being advertised externally on the University's website and of that around 35% being advertised with other publishers. The University is made up of five faculties and a number of professional services departments. The types of vacancies include Senior Management, Academic, Research and Professional Services staff. This tender is to appoint a single supplier that can work with the Human Resources Department to provide the advertising service to the University for all of our staff recruitment at the most cost effective price. Ideally the supplier will have the ability to negotiate substantial discounts with a large number of publishers used by the University and will be able to offer the University advertising at rates lower than we would be able to purchase directly. In addition, they will research and offer recruitment advertising advice to ensure that each department in the University is spending their advertising budget in the most effective way. The provider will have the proven ability, experience and excellent customer service to implement a service that delivers. The University is seeking to develop a relationship with a supplier which provides efficient and cost-effective service arrangements. It will be capable of meeting current and future market changes and will meet, and often exceed, client expectations. Tenders are being invited for a new contract for a length of 3 years with an option to extend for a further 2 years.
