About the buyer

London Metropolitan University is a higher education institution in London with its own central procurement team. The Procurement Unit operates independently of any spending department and reports directly to the Chief Finance Officer. Minimum purchasing standards are set across the university and its subsidiaries. The London Universities Purchasing Consortium puts frameworks in place that university purchasers consider first. The central team runs the tendering process for larger requirements on behalf of departments.

Over the past 5 years, most of London Metropolitan University's contract awards have been in software and information systems, IT services and communications equipment.
