This contract is being commissioned on behalf of the Sport and Active Anglia team within Student Services at Anglia Ruskin University.
Sport and Active Anglia are responsible for most elements of student sport within our university including competitive sports clubs, social sport and management of sports facilities. We are responsible for the overall delivery of our university’s sport strategy. The Sport and Active Anglia team are responsible for sport at all of our campuses including Cambridge, Chelmsford, Peterborough and London.
Sport and Active Anglia have a broad range of sports clothing requirements across a number of programmes. The contractor will need to be able to provide a range of options so that we can build in variation depending on each need whilst still retaining the overall sense that all items belong to the same team.
Sports clothing needs to be fit for purpose to give our staff and students maximum opportunity to be successful. We see sports clothing as an important tool for creating a sense of pride and belonging in our university community — both for the wearer and those who see others wearing it on and off campus.
Most kit will be ordered directly by the Sport and Active Anglia team and then distributed to staff and students as necessary. In addition to this, the potential supplier must provide an online shop facility for students, staff and others to be able to buy additional items of kit on an individual basis which can be personalised within some clearly defined parameters given by the Sport and Active Anglia team. The online shop should operate independent of our university staff but the potential supplier must make necessary assurances that student payments will be secure and details of all purchases must be made available to university staff on a regular basis.
