This contract is set to commence on 1st June 2018 and run until 31st August 2020, including options for two additional one-year extensions. The tender period concluded on 14th May 2018, and the procurement method used was an open procedure. The services will primarily serve to engage small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and potential research students within the North West region of England. This tender presents a substantial opportunity for businesses specialising in marketing services, particularly those that can provide innovative collateral and communications strategies. SMEs with experience in similar projects would be especially well-positioned to compete, as the university intends to appoint a single supplier but also reserves the right to source alternative suppliers if needed. Companies looking to enhance their portfolio with public sector contracts may find this tender to be a valuable prospect for growth and increased visibility. ## Notice This is a confirmation of award following the below tender: The University undertook a tender for the supply and delivery of general marketing collateral and communications services. These services will support the delivery of the project by recruiting and engaging SMEs and potential research students. PLEASE NOTE: The contract is for an initial period until 31st August 2018 with the option to extend for 2 x 1 year periods in respect of Project No: 03R17P01835. While the University seeks to appoint one supplier for this contract to cover all elements of this contract, if during the contract the appointed provider cannot fulfil requirements, the University reserves the right to source those items from an alternative supplier. The start date was anticipated to be in June 2018. The total budgeted value for this tender, (should all extension options be taken) is up to PS30,000 including VAT. The actual demand and volumes may vary from the budgeted value given in this tender document, as over the period of the contract term, additional requirements may be identified, or reduced, as demand may increase or alter. No guarantee can therefore be given regarding the volume, nor value, of business placed. Quantities or volumes specified within this tender document are therefore indicative only. One order may therefore be placed for the total requirements, or as separate, individual orders. Dates and values are estimated and therefore subject to change.
