Tender description

Further to our earlier UK2 notice, Jisc Services Limited (JSL) is nearing finalisation of tender documentation for the creation of a framework providing high-quality assessment and feedback solutions that support effective, secure, and learner-centred assessment practices. This UK3 notice is designed to better prepare interested vendors ahead of the live tender, providing details on tender process, anticipated timetables, and award criteria. Further, we are also encouraging vendors to provide feedback on some of the intended tender pack, namely drafts of; - the scope of requirements schedule - the functional requirements - the pricing schedule - the Jisc SaaS agreement (from which the framework agreement will be based upon) Versions of these documents are available for download via the JSL eProcurement system, and where the vendor chooses to respond, should be returned with annotation via the same system. All comments provided will be reviewed and JSL will use these to refine the tender pack as deemed appropriate. A response is not mandated and will not affect vendors from tendering a bid in due course. Please note that *all* information provided at this stage is given in good faith, based upon best estimates but is subject to change.

About the buyer

Jisc provides digital, data and network services to UK higher and further education, and buys as a central body with its own commercial team. Suppliers register free on the Mercell e-tendering portal to view and respond to opportunities. Contracts also appear on Contracts Finder and Find a Tender Service. A procurement pipeline lists larger contracts expected over the next five years. Frameworks and dynamic purchasing systems cover network equipment, cloud services and research systems. Member universities and colleges call off these agreements directly, without running their own tender. Regional partners including SUPC, APUC and HEPCW extend this buying power across the sector.

Procurement spend from central entities makes up 66% of overall UK public spend.

Over the past 5 years, most of Jisc's contract awards have been in education and training, IT services and software and information systems.
