About the buyer
Nottingham Trent University buys as a higher education institution under its own Procurement Policy, covering the goods and services it needs to operate, teach and conduct research. Contract value decides whether a supplier is asked for a quotation or invited to tender. Tenders run through Delta eSourcing, the university's dedicated eTendering portal. Framework agreements run through regional and national purchasing consortia such as NEUPC, APUC and ESPO. Higher-value opportunities are also published on Contracts Finder and the Find a Tender Service. A central Procurement team runs supplier due diligence checks once a tender is won.
