(NU/1335) Supply of Financial Benchmarking and Associated Consultancy Services

Tender description

Newcastle University acting as lead institution for the Russell Group of Universities Benchmarking Consortium is tendering under the EU Competitive Dialogue procedure for a supplier to the benchmarking of performance in respect of the delivery of the full range of core services provided to support the academic activity of the universities. It should be noted that we seek to identify and analyse the total cost of operating for each area of our activities, not simply the costs that arise in central divisions of professional services within each University. A provider is sought to continue to support the benchmarking group which will provide real value to its members. This will include gathering data from the participating universities, analysing it, presenting the findings and assisting in the interpretation and use of the outputs. The analysis should cover pay and non-pay costs including the outsourcing of services. Keywords: Hogan, Services, EU, Tender, Benchmarking, Collaboration
