Buyer: The Mayor and Commonalty and Citizens of the City of London →
We seek to understand software solutions that support ticket sales, financial accounting and analysis, marketing strategy and execution, and customer relationship management (CRM). Together, these capabilities will enable the Barbican to deliver a seamless, end-to-end experience across both digital and onsite touchpoints. The selected solution(s) should support the development and execution of data-driven marketing initiatives, enhance audience engagement and satisfaction, enable effective fundraising and stakeholder management, and provide actionable insights across the customer lifecycle. Collectively, these functions are critical to enhancing the overall Barbican experience and supporting the organisation’s operational effectiveness and long-term strategic objectives.

Benchmarked against retained Find a Tender procedures with CPV division 22. The category anchor is Tickets (22459000); this is a deliberately broad market comparator. The comparison is shown at several levels rather than pretending one company or region is always the best benchmark.
| Comparison set | Procedures | Reported bids per procedure | Named award suppliers | Price evidence |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Market: CPV division 22 | 339 | 3 median · 14.7 average (114 of 339 with a bid count) | 3.6 average (127 of 339 with named award suppliers) | Not published |
| Same buyer | 0 | Not published | Not published | Not published |
“Reported bids” is an official aggregate, sometimes reported per lot; it is the closest available competition measure. “Named award suppliers” are winners, not all applicants.
Not enough comparable procedures currently publish both a GBP tender value and a usable lowest-valid-bid value to calculate a responsible price-reduction benchmark. Tenderline deliberately does not infer a saving from named award suppliers or from missing award values.
| Milestone | Type | Due | Status |
|---|---|---|---|
| Interested suppliers should register on the City of London Corporation Sourcing & Contracts Portal (Jaggaer) and complete the preliminary market engagement (PME) questionnaire, submitting their response by midday (12pm), 19/03/2026. | engagement | 19 Mar 2026 | scheduled |
