Coverage: 50 active published awards; 1 bid reports (which may be per lot). Supplier values exclude multi-supplier awards, frameworks and DPS, and use GBP only. They are published award values, not payments. Published-to-award variance compares single-lot, single-award, single-supplier GBP procedures with explicitly non-framework/non-DPS status; increases remain in the average. Unpublished data stays unknown. Awarded suppliers are winners, not all bidders.

What is being bought
Jisc is establishing an open framework to enable Jisc to purchase consultancy. This consultancy focuses on the needs of digital leadership, transformation, libraries and research & innovation in the UK non-profit organisation sector (tertiary education, charities, funding).
Jisc consultancy supports a range of organisations with the development and implementation of digital leadership and transformation, and research & innovation at both strategic and operational levels across all areas of business.
The Open Framework covers two specialisms separated into Lots:
Lot 1: Digital Leadership and Transformation
This includes digital and organisational change across learning, teaching and assessment, student experience and support, training, research, knowledge management and digital and physical infrastructure.
Consultancy work can help organisations with strategy development and review, organisational planning and review of systems, services, information and data management to inform investment priorities and future development. Jisc consultancy around digital transformation helps to explore and address factors such as organisational culture, digital leadership, digital capability and wellbeing, helping to create the conditions for sustainable change and enhanced business outcomes.
This work will align with our Framework for digital transformation in higher education. Our digital transformation toolkit provides further details.
Lot 2: Research & Innovation
Digital and data research infrastructure strategy and operational development in higher education and publicly funded research and related partnerships across sectors.
Research management strategy and operational development in higher education and publicly funded research and related partnerships across sectors.
Scholarly communications in higher education and publicly funded research and related partnerships across sectors.
The Supplier must meet all of the requirements for general questions, all of the requirements for at least one specialism, and pass the interview stage.
