What is being bought

Published requirement description

University is looking to establish agreements with suitable Contractor(s) who can provide

Student Support Services to our students eligible for support via Disabled Students

Allowance, ESFA funding, other funding bodies, or for support funded by the University of

Wolverhampton. Students awarded DSA will possess a needs assessment that details what

support, adjustments and equipment a student requires based on the assessor's

determination of how their disability affects their individual ability to study and could place

them at a disadvantage. Similarly the University may undertake an assessment of the

support needs of a student not eligible for DSA and provide support funded by the University

or other funding bodies the University is eligible to claim for. This is a Managed Service for

use when the University does not have capacity within its Non-Medical Helper (NMH) team.

What this means for your bid
  • Price carries 70 of 100 points: a 10% discount moves about 7 points. This one is won on the number: sharpen the price before polishing the prose.
  • “21-13 Student Support Services” is a framework: the contest is a place on its panel, not a single contract.

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