    Brief

    The Universities of Leicester, Aston, and De Montfort seek to establish a non-exclusive framework agreement for professional tax advisory services to support their academic and research operations, as well as their subsidiary companies. The framework will run for four years (2+1+1 year terms), with each university able to extend or exit after each renewal period. The opportunity is split into three lots, with up to five suppliers selected for each: Lot 1 covers UK Value Added Tax advice; Lot 2 covers other UK tax services including corporation tax review and compliance, customs duties, and employment-related tax advisory; and Lot 3 covers international tax advice for non-UK, EU, and non-EU operations, including compliance, advisory services, and overseas VAT/GST matters related to overseas operations.
