Lot details

Lot 1

The PPF call centre solution is integrated with our existing infrastructure, therefore, to enable continuity of service we require the continuation of this solution. The PPF is currently undertaking a significant level of change within our IT infrastructure, and therefore changing this part of our IT infrastructure is not feasible given the significant planned change over the next two years. A project is currently underway to enable the PPF to procure a fully future-proofed call centre solution and we will be going out to market in due course. Additional information: Quality and price evaluation was not applicable to this procurement.

Comparable-procurement analytics

Benchmarked against retained Find a Tender procedures with CPV division 64. The category anchor is Telecommunications services (64200000); 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 641,3383 median · 18.9 average (415 of 1,338 with a bid count)2.3 average (499 of 1,338 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.
