This procurement, designated as SF/2405, is classified under the CPV category of software package and information systems, with a financial envelope ranging from £100,000 to £150,000. The tender period is set to close on 11th March 2016, and the contract is expected to commence on 1st September 2016, lasting until 31st August 2019. The specified delivery location is Leeds, Yorkshire and the Humber, United Kingdom. This tender presents a substantial opportunity for businesses specialising in software development and management information systems, particularly those experienced in creating applications for educational institutions. Companies equipped to enhance functionalities that assist in student supervision and training recording would be particularly well-suited to compete. This tender could significantly benefit SME firms that can provide innovative solutions aligned with the requirements of the University of Leeds, contributing to their growth in the educational software sector. ## Notice The requirement is to provide a replacement Postgraduate Development (PDR) Management Information system for that which was implemented in September 2011. The PDR is a University wide web-based application that is accessible to all postgraduate research (PGR) students and all staff involved in the career of a research student (supervisor(s), postgraduate research tutors, advisors, external supervisors, research groups, members of transfer assessment panel and administrators). The PDR has been developed to support agreed University-wide processes relating to the recording of interaction between research students and their supervisors at the University of Leeds. Specifically, the system has been developed to support; * Recording of formal supervision meetings * Recording student training * Transfer from provisional registration * Formal reports on student progress The initial driver for the project was a legal obligation to monitor attendance to meet UK Border Agency (UKBA) arrangements for Tier 4 visas for overseas adult students studying in the UK. The PDR will support UKBA and University requirements by monitoring at least ten contacts between full-time postgraduate research students and supervisors p.a. (five p.a. for part-time students). The Project wants to build on the success and benefits of the existing system by providing enhanced services to research students, faculty/school staff, student administration staff and examiners.
