Description

The University of Derby wishes to invite tenders for the design, supply and installation of a cashless payment system within the University of Derby group. This should be implemented, tested and in live production to be used by students for the start of term September 2018.
The objective is to:-
Increase security through reduced cash handling on the campus
Improve student experience through reduced need for cash, more effective use of discount schemes, management of student engagement initiatives and universal access to a wide range of facilities
Improve management of student finances, bursaries, and other sources of financial support e.g. parent / carers and ring fencing of specific funds
Increase effectiveness of data acquisition and reporting to allow the University to evaluate student attainment in relation to bursary payments

The chosen supplier will be required to provide the necessary professional services for the duration of the project and contribute to the strategic design, process design, user acceptance testing, implementation and training to enable the success of the 'Cashless Campus' project.
It is envisaged the 'Cashless Campus' project will extend to across multiple contracted out services, for example catering, as well as the Student Union shops, bars and restaurants and that contactless payments will be made using the existing identity cards used by students.
