LUV01372 - Tax Advisory Services

The Universities of Leicester, Aston and De Montfort (DMU, and together “the Universities”) are all academic and research Universities with thriving student communities and a reputation for academic and research excellence. As such the Universities operate in a complicated legal and regulatory environment and intend to establish a non-exclusive framework of professional tax advice for the Universities and their subsidiary companies. The framework term will be four years in total (2+1+1) – with each university having the option to either extend or leave after each term renewal . The framework will be split into three lots as detailed below with up to five suppliers envisaged to populate each lot: Lot 1 UK Value Added Tax advice Lot 2 Other UK Tax advice (Inc but not limited to Corporation tax review and compliance, Customs Duties, Employment Related and other UK tax advisory services) Lot 3 International Tax advice (Inc but not limited to compliance and advisory services, Corporation tax, overseas VAT/GST relating to the consequences of overseas operations) (Non-UK, EU and Outside EU)
