How to win their contracts

Measured from Nottingham Trent University's own published record — no estimates, no generic advice.

• Plan for about 31 days to prepare a bid — that is the median gap between publication and deadline across 31 of their tenders.
• They publish about 1.2 tenders a month, measured over 68 months of history.
• Half of their 22 awarded contracts are worth £798k or less — size your bid to that range.
• Most of their buying falls in construction work, business services: law, marketing, consulting, recruitment, printing, security, repair and maintenance services.
• Their most frequent suppliers are PFS Fire & Security Ltd (3), Kukri GB Limited (3), Phoenix Software Limited (2) — expect to bid against incumbents who already know this buyer.
