About this contract

The proposed engagement is necessary to ensure the University develops a robust, supportable, and costed solution for the Docking Station within a compressed delivery timescale. The project introduces a new and technically complex operating model for the University, combining specialist studio environments, teaching space, and co-working facilities, with requirements spanning operational, security, support, and licensing considerations. The engagement will provide the structured facilitation needed to define and validate both functional and non-functional requirements, align ICCI and IT Services stakeholders, and produce agreed outputs that enable accurate technical design, delivery planning, and costing. Without this focused activity there is a significant risk of misalignment, rework, unsupported technical decisions, increased long-term operational risk, and delay to delivery. People and Prompt is considered uniquely placed to deliver this work because they possess knowledge of the University's operating environment, internal structures, and existing technical capabilities, allowing the engagement to begin immediately without additional discovery or onboarding.
