The University of Alberta (University) was founded in 1908, and was established with a mission to build one of the world's greatest universities "to uplift the whole people". The University is one of Canada's premier post-secondary institutions, with a long tradition of research and teaching excellence with deep and embedded ties to both the local Edmonton community and the province of Alberta at large. The University is comprised of thirteen (13) faculties organized around three (3) colleges, in addition to three (3) standalone faculties. The University is home to just over 40,000 students, across five (5) campuses, in two (2) cities. The University seeks to commission the provision of an expert consulting firm with a strong track record of working in educational settings, similar in size, scope and complexity to the University of Alberta, to provide professional, management and/or consulting services. With a focus on achieving our strategic goals, the provision of these services will assist the University in determining the best solutions while achieving effectiveness, efficiency, service delivery and improving the financial position. The result will support the University with delivering on a wide variety of work, projects and initiatives which will improve employee, student and stakeholder experiences. The successful proponent will be contacted at the leisure of the University to provide assistance as noted above on an "as needed" basis. The contractor will be expected to make necessary resources available in a timely manner as determined by the University of Alberta. (i.e. Resources must be available within 10 business days after receipt of a consulting project request or on mutually agreed to timelines.) The agreement will be for an initial three (3) year term, with two (2) renewal options of two (2) years each. The method of Contractor Selection has not been Determined at this time
