Description

The University of Manchester currently holds licences for a statistical and scientific analysis tool, which can create high-quality scientific graphs. Rising licensing costs and evolving usage requirements necessitate a review of existing arrangements and potential alternatives. This project will engage with a partner to explore cost reduction strategies, licence optimisation, and potential software transitions, with academic consultation and product ownership as central components. The University of Manchester no longer meets the criteria of a 'body governed by public law' and is therefore not considered a contracting authority for the purposes of the Public Contracts Regulations 2015 and/or any replacement legislation. As a result, the University of Manchester will no longer be subject to the regime contained in The Public Contracts Regulations 2015 and/or any replacement legislation with effect from 1 August 2023. However, as an institution founded for the public good, an exempt charity and an organization in receipt of public funds, the University has a duty to manage expenditure in an appropriate manner and aims to deliver value for money across its non-pay spend by adhering to good procurement practice
