Published risks
Bidders should be aware of the following factors affecting contract performance, which are addressed in the tender documents and minimum contract terms: a fixed go-live date of 30 September 2027 aligned to the recruitment cycle, with no tolerance for slippage; dependency on third-party systems not controlled by the College; significant content migration requiring joint working within College term-time constraints; WCAG 2.2 AA accessibility as a continuing obligation verified by independent audit; availability and performance requirements at concentrated seasonal peaks; and the potential for organisational and curriculum change during the contract term.
PSQ will be assessed for compliance. Only those meeting PSQ required standards will be evaluated at Tender. Tender scores will determine shortlisting to Pitch / Clarification Interview.
