Do you know who Decides If We Do Our Own Tender Or Use A Consortia Agreement?

Answer:

It is a requirement, as identified in the Diamond Report, for University’s to use collaborative agreements for 30% of their non pay spends. This is measured on an annual basis through statistical returns. The Procurement Service will always review any agreements that are available to use, and will discuss with the stakeholder if this is suitable for their needs. If they are, a mini competition will be undertaken that complies with the terms set in the framework agreement. This can substantially reduce timescales. If the agreement is not suitable, or does not closely match our requirements, we will have to do our own tender.
