What is being bought
The University is undertaking Preliminary Market Engagement to inform the development of a future procurement for an integrated Curriculum Management, Timetabling and Scheduling solution.
This engagement follows an earlier Preliminary Market Engagement exercise relating to a timetabling and scheduling system. Following consideration of market feedback and further review of the University’s strategic and operational requirements, the proposed scope has been expanded to include curriculum management functionality with the intention of procuring a single, integrated solution.
The University is seeking feedback from the market to help shape the procurement strategy, refine the requirements and understand current market capability. Suppliers who participated in the previous engagement, together with any other interested suppliers, are invited to participate. Participation in this engagement will not confer any advantage or disadvantage in any subsequent procurement process.
