The University, acting as the buying organization, has outlined the need for an IT service that includes consulting, software development, internet, and support. The tender deadline is set for 17th November 2023, with the contract period spanning from 1st October 2024 to 30th September 2029. This opportunity falls under the services category and is open to SMEs. Business entities involved in IT services should consider competing for this tender. This tender issued by De Montfort University presents a valuable business growth opportunity for IT service providers specialising in consulting, software development, internet technology, and support services. The competitive positioning of the University's future offer requires a high level of technical expertise and innovation to meet their strategic goals. Interested companies should pay close attention to the detailed requirements specified in the tender documentation to align their proposals effectively with the University's objectives and secure potential long-term partnerships. ## Notice A market leading careers system is a key element for the University achieving strong overall student destination outcomes, as measured by the Graduate Outcomes Survey. DMU currently has room for improvement on both Graduate Outcomes results rates and the amount of DMU students progressing into highly skilled employment. A careers system that provides a better student experience, and crucially delivers on improving our employer engagement capabilities could be seen as a game changer. With so many DMU students falling into a widening participation category, it is essential that we are providing them with market leading careers technology that will place them on a level playing field with more privileged peers. The University needs to offer a careers service platform that has a strong competitive positioning in the marketplace, which will frame the University's future offer over the next decade and best supports the Empowering University strategy. This consequently requires a careers system that supports this strategic ambition and delivers the flexibility to enable the University Careers Team to deliver on its strategic aims. All Tenderers should have due regard for these wider high level strategic aims alongside responding to the stated Functional or Non-Functional Requirements at Schedule 2 forming part of the ITT. Full details of the University's Requirements can be found in the Specification (Schedule 2).
