Comparable-procurement analytics

Benchmarked against retained Find a Tender procedures with CPV division 72. The category anchor is IT services: consulting, software development, Internet and support (72000000); 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 setProceduresReported bids per procedureNamed award suppliersPrice evidence
Market: CPV division 725,8361 median · 14.4 average (2,107 of 5,836 with a bid count)1.9 average (2,516 of 5,836 with named award suppliers)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.

Price-outcome signal

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.

Procurement strategy & market signals

Framework agreementNot published
Dynamic purchasing systemNot published
Competitive procurementNot published
Recurring requirementNot published
Procurement method rationaleThe Defence Equipment & Support, part of the UK Ministry of Defence (the “Authority”), intends to award a contract to Fujitsu Services Limited for enhanced Break/Fix Support Solution for the provision of software, hardware and warranty support for the Typhoon Engineering Support Sub-system (ESS) during the 40-Month period of 1 Jan 2025 – 30 Apr 2028. The estimated contract value is £TBC excluding VAT. In accordance with regulation 4 of the Defence and Security Public Contracts (Amendment) (EU Exit) Regulations 2019 (SI 2019/697) this procurement falls to be regulated under the provisions of the Defence and Security Public Contracts Regulations 2011 as amended (in particular by SI 2019/697 and SI 2020/1450). Prior publication of a contract notice in the Official Journal of the European Union is no longer appropriate. BAE Systems (BAES), as the System Design Authority (SDA), determines the type and specification of the hardware and software required. Fujitsu Services Limited are the only supplier authorised by BAES to supply SDA-approved equipment, spares support, and to provide OEM certified firmware updates to the installed ESS Hardware. All of this assures the validity of the design and use criteria detailed in the Declaration of Design and Performance (DDP) which covers the safety and airworthiness of the product and therefore the platform.
