The brief

As part of our ongoing commitment to excellence in student experience, Coventry University Group has developed the Flying Start programme ensuring all students have access to the key resources they need in order to maximise engagement and success in their studies.

Since 2012, the University has provided print copies of course reading in addition to a small amount of non-book material (such as PSHE equipment, drawing materials, and electronic kits) to all undergraduates.

More recently, we have begun supplying texts in electronic format to a small number of courses.

The University is now seeking to transform their Flying Start offer and shift delivery to a wholly electronic format starting with our September 2019 entrants.

In order to successfully meet this aim, the University is seeking a bidder to provide a single platform for e-book delivery in addition to acting as the University's agent in negotiating with Publishers for the supply of content at discounted prices.
