Procedure rationaleOxford Brookes University intends to award this contract directly to Twin Education under Regulation 32 of the Public Contracts Regulations 2015. Twin Education provides a unique capability and a flexible and enhanced placement service for international students that aligns with the University's strategic objective to grow student recruitment and improve placement outcomes. Twin Education’s extensive network and its established partnerships have proven its capability for securing high placement rates. It offers a bespoke solution that no other supplier has been able to offer or replicate. An open procurement process could risk exposing sensitive details of the university's recruitment and placement strategies, potentially undermining its competitive position and market growth efforts. As such, this direct award ensures the timely and effective implementation of a critical new entry point and placement approach, essential for achieving targeted recruitment and financial viability.
