Description

The University is undertaking a project to improve the experience of academic staff and support staff when managing research contracts and cases. A review of the current processes highlighted a need for a technical solution to provide oversight, transparency and drafting capabilities. As part of this project, it has been identified that it would be beneficial to conduct soft market testing to ascertain the offerings around case and contract management This request for information will be used to shortlist suppliers for a subsequent closed procurement exercise. The University of Manchester no longer meets the criteria of a 'body governed by public law' and is therefore not considered a contracting authority for the purposes of the Public Contracts Regulations 2015 and/or any replacement legislation. As a result, the University of Manchester will no longer be subject to the regime contained in The Public Contracts Regulations 2015 and/or any replacement legislation with effect from 1 August 2023. However, as an institution founded for the public good, an exempt charity and an organization in receipt of public funds, the University has a duty to manage expenditure in an appropriate manner and aims to deliver value for money across its non-pay spend by adhering to good procurement practice.
