Tender description
The University of Birmingham invites tenders for supply of Customer Relationship Management (CRM) software and associated configuration services to support the transformation of the student acquisition process and experience. The solution will replace several tools and technology used to support student attraction, application, and conversion activities across the entire education portfolio. At the heart of our ambition lies a desire to take full advantage of the latest marketing and process automation opportunities available within a modern CRM solution while also providing our staff and prospective students an efficient and effective user experience. Key areas of activity included within the scope of requirements include marketing, campaigns, events, stakeholder engagement, enquiry management, application processing and admissions. It is envisaged that the University will create an internal product team to work alongside the successful supplier to rollout and continually iterate upon an initial configuration of a solution that has the potential to become an institution wide CRM platform. We would therefore welcome the opportunity for potential suppliers to engage with us to refine these requirements through competitive dialogue.

About the buyer
University of Birmingham is a higher education organisation whose central Procurement Division buys on behalf of its colleges, departments and professional services. Framework agreements arranged through regional consortia set fixed terms, service levels and pricing, and a purchase is committed only once an order is placed. The University also runs its own Build Higher Framework for construction projects, appointing five approved contractors to deliver against it. Suppliers register on the University's in-tend portal to view and respond to live tenders. Sustainable procurement principles apply across all University purchasing, covering carbon reduction and ethical supply chains.
Education procurement reached £47.4bn in 2024/25, the fourth-largest public sector budget.
Over the past 5 years, most of University of Birmingham's contract awards have been in business services, software and information systems and research and development.
