About us

Procurement Services are a small team of procurement professionals with many years of experience in both the public and higher education sectors. A number of them are qualified or part qualified through the , and the team is committed to keeping up to date with current procurement issues and best practice.

The university is part of the , where universities in the south of England collaborate on university-wide contracts. Our SUPC contracts involve commodities such as photocopiers, stationery, janitorial supplies, furniture and IT equipment.

Occasionally, the university also uses sector-wide contracts from the (CCS).

EU tender opportunities

We operate a devolved budgeting system with day to day purchasing decisions taken at departmental level. Any supplier wishing to undertake or tender for business with the university should initially make contact with the relevant school or department.

Approved lists

For supplies and services we do not maintain a list of approved, preferred or recommended suppliers.

For low value construction work we use suppliers registered on Constructionline: .

Sustainable procurement

The university is committed to sustainability in everything it does, which means balancing the needs of the present with the impact on the future. Sustainable procurement aims to marry these two ideals, ensuring that the university operates in a way that is both financially and ethically sound.

Our vision for procurement supports the university’s aims and values, as elaborated in our  (pdf). The document sets a clear framework for procurement throughout the university over the next two years.

Asbestos register

The asbestos register made available here relates to buildings under the control of the 91¶¶Òõ that are known to contain asbestos containing materials (ACM).

Typically, these are buildings constructed and refurbished before year 2000. After year 2000 asbestos containing materials were generally known to no longer be available on the market in the United Kingdom.

However, any person undertaking construction or maintenance activities on our premises is expected to have completed an asbestos awareness training course and be able to identify those materials that are likely to contain asbestos.

In all circumstances if material is suspected to contain asbestos then its true nature must be ascertained. All ACM can only be worked on or removed with the consent of the Asbestos Manager.

The Asbestos register information is primarily based on Management Surveys compliant with current guidance issued by the Health and Safety Executive.

In some circumstances the results of Refurbishment Surveys have been included as there is a strong presumption that materials identified in these surveys are present in similar parts of the building.

In all circumstances a Refurbishment Survey must be considered before any refurbishment of a building takes place or changes are made that are likely to affect the fabric of building. The Asbestos Manager must be consulted.

Should any party have any query regarding the asbestos register information or in regard to asbestos on the university’s premises then please contact the Asbestos Manager, Edwin Underwood.

Terms and conditions

We operate under a number of standard terms and conditions, which are used when contracting with suppliers. However, it may be that the university and the supplier will negotiate the terms and conditions of a contract on a case-by-case basis.

Anti-slavery and human trafficking

The 91¶¶Òõ is committed to tackling modern slavery and human trafficking. To this end an anti-slavery and human trafficking statement and policy have been developed which will set out the university’s commitment to ensuring there is no modern slavery or human trafficking in its supply chains or in any part of its business.

As a publicly funded body, the university has a duty to provide certain information to the public under the Freedom of Information Act 2000. Please refer to our pages on freedom of information at the university for more details.
