What is being bought

Published requirement description

The university seeks to award a framework agreement with a maximum of five providers that

will support the university's ambitions to recruit and enrol apprentices over the next four

years.

Providers will be able to prospect for applicants and engage with individuals and

organisations to provide us with successful enrolments. Payment will be on results, with a

fixed fee becoming due for every successful applicant that enrols on their apprenticeship

with us.

Prospective providers should note the extent of services required is far beyond basic market

opportunity analysis. The university will not form an agreement with organisations that will

only provide lead generation and/or appointment booking services.

CPV: Business services: law, marketing, consulting, recruitment, printing and security

  • quality: 60
  • Price: 40
What this means for your bid
  • Price carries 40 of 100 points: a 10% discount moves about 4 points. The method statement decides this lot, not the discount.
  • “Framework Agreement for Apprentice Finding and Recruitment Services” is a framework: the contest is a place on its panel, up to 5 suppliers, not a single contract.

Price arithmetic assumes straight proportional scoring; the tender pack may use another formula.
