Coverage: 117 active published awards; 91 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. Price reduction 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 Unpublished data stays unknown.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.

Published by the contracting authority
- Lot 1 · #1Individual lot title not publishedactivePublished value£250,000The University publishes a year-end Environment and Climate Emergency report, the latest being for 2021/22. From 2022/23, the University will be publishing a full Sustainability Report. We are seeking an appropriately experienced and qualified consultancy to provide independent assurance of our annual sustainability data from 2023/24 onwards (reporting period 1 August – 31 July). A private management report is required as well as a public limited assurance opinion. Select carbon KPIs are included within the University’s Annual Report and Accounts (ARA). These will need to be assured on a shorter timescale than the majority of the KPIs to meet the timetable for producing the ARA. Detailed deadlines will be provided after contract completion. Independent assurance is required on the 2023/24 data onwards data but to enable the process to be as smooth as possible we’d like you to start on the 2022/23 data and provide us with an interim findings report to inform planning. Our preference is for the assurance to be undertaken against the ISAE3000 assurance standard. Any proposal to use an alternative standard needs to be accompanied by a justification for using an alternative standard.
