The University of Sheffield has awarded a tender for the lease of student accommodation, specifically targeting the letting of 350 single study bedrooms for the 2016-17 period. This process falls under the accommodation services industry category and took place in Sheffield, Yorkshire and the Humber region. The tender was initiated on an open procurement method, and although the contract period begins on 17 September 2016 and concludes on 8 July 2017, there are possibilities for extension and additional room leases, potentially extending the contract up to five years.
