Commercial outcome & contract awards
Published awards, contracts and bid statistics, not a forecast| Awarded to | Value | Date | Status |
|---|---|---|---|
| supplier not published | — | 22 Apr 2026 | CancelledThe University is developing a new five-year strategy and, at the same time, reviewing the delivery model for professional services. This includes provision of resilience coaching, as well as other support for student wellbeing and success. The University has therefore decided to pause and reflect on the Student Resilience Workshops, and to consider whether this requirement should continue to be procured in the way it was specified. Whilst there are still plans to provide Workshops in some form, as part of NTU's Access and Participation Plan, the university is not now in a position to commit to the advertised contract and programme of work at this time. |
