NEUPC intends to award up-to the 7 top ranked bidders to the framework, see the ITT document for full details. As geographic coverage is important, particularly for any under-represented regions, NEUPC reserves the right to increase the numbers of suppliers awarded to the framework to ensure the needs of member universities across the UK are met.
