## Summary

NOTTINGHAM TRENT UNIVERSITY is currently in the planning stage of the procurement process for the "Timetabling SMT" project. The university is looking to engage in a pre-procurement market exercise to determine suitable software package and information systems. The engagement end date for this exercise is set for 8th January 2024. The project falls under the industry category of Software package and information systems, with the delivery address located in the East Midlands, United Kingdom.

This tender from NOTTINGHAM TRENT UNIVERSITY presents an opportunity for businesses specializing in software solutions to participate in the market engagement exercise. Although the university is not obligated to proceed to a competitive tendering process, businesses with expertise in HE & FE Timetabling Solution systems and capabilities are well-suited to engage. This pre-procurement phase invites suppliers to demonstrate their strategic aims, functionality, operability, and estimated costs for potential solutions.

## Notice

NTU wish to undertake a pre-procurement market engagement exercise before any possible procurement is started, to determine suitable HE & FE Timetabling Solution, systems and capabilities. In the first instance we would ask that as much information as possible is given in response to our requirements of strategic aims, functionality and operability, as asked for in this document. We may ask that solutions be demonstrated in the proposed workshop sessions, when we have had the opportunity to assess the supplier responses. This exercise is aimed at making informed decisions surrounding future solutions as part of pre-procurement planning and is an essential step before deciding whether to initiate a full project leading to procurement. We will therefore also be looking at supplier and technology capabilities, opportunities to deliver and estimated costs for full and partial solutions. This pre-procurement market engagement process in no way obliges Nottingham Trent University (NTU) to commence with any competitive tendering process. NTU is not and shall not in any event be liable for any costs incurred at any time by any person, natural or artificial, participating in this pre-procurement market engagement exercise.
