Published award criteria (2)
- Quality: 70

- Why no open competition
- No tenders or no suitable tenders/requests to participate in response to open procedure
- Published justification
Following an open tender exercise (FTS Contract Notice: 2021/S 000-023300) the University was unable to reach agreement on terms and conditions with the highest scoring bidder. No contract award was made as a result (FTS F03: 2022/S 000-003258).
NWUPC framework agreement for Financial Services (Lot 2 - External Audit) identified as the most efficient alternate route to market and the supplier list includes the highest scoring bidder from the University's previous tender exercise.
