Tender for Online Programme Management (OPM) Partnership for Manchester Online

Description

The University of Manchester seeks to expand its offering of high-quality online learning programmes over the next three years, in addition to the support provided within existing faculties and professional services. The initiative for Manchester Online seeks to establish a dedicated internal agency to expand our offerings for online education and lifelong learning in collaboration with a flexible partnership (flex partner). Information, formalities and necessary requirements to be met will be set out in the procurement documents, all of which are freely available via the University's procurement portal In-Tend - https://in-tendhost.co.uk/manchesteruniversity 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.
