What is being bought

Scottish Hydro Electric Transmission Plc. ("SHET"), seeks a market leading supplier of cloud based file storage and collaboration solutions. The solution provided should be able to handle proprietary specialist file types such as Geospatial Information System (GIS), engineering design (e.g. AutoCAD), Building Information Management (BIM) and 3d laser scans, in the near term up to 50GBb individual file size and collections >30TBb, performantly and without any loss/degradation, sync error or corruption. The solution needs to provide a user interface that separates the users from directly accessing the back end storage. This user interface needs to be intuitive and provide a positive user experience. The solution will provide options to share files with internal and external collaborators which may be via login, link share or other methodologies. The solution will provide out of the box interoperability which will enable files to be surfaced (via connector/bridge/API or other methods) via cloud based SAAS applications such as Autodesk Construction Cloud, IBM Maximo, and ESRI ArcGIS, plus SharePoint and Microsoft O365. It is preferable that any connector/option has been proven in industry with similar clients. The vendor must provide a means of migrating data from legacy sources into the cloud storage. The solution should be hosted in the UK only and highly cyber-secure and resilient, and support all access control requirements. The solution should have a strong business-continuity-and-disaster-recovery offering. The provider should provide timely high quality project delivery services and excellent post implementation customer support options. Note that the SHET has confirmed through proofs of concept that generic file storage (as may be appropriate for office documents) may not be suitable for all such file types and so prospective tenderers are encouraged to carefully validate if their solution can handle such files.

Comparable-procurement analytics

Benchmarked against retained Find a Tender procedures with CPV division 48. The category anchor is Software package and information systems (48000000); 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 486,0471 median · 8.9 average (2,218 of 6,047 with a bid count)1.7 average (2,577 of 6,047 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.

    "description": "Scottish Hydro Electric Transmission Plc. (“SHET”), seeks a market leading supplier of cloud based file storage and collaboration solutions.  The solution provided should be able to handle proprietary specialist file types such as Geospatial Information System (GIS), engineering design (e.g. AutoCAD), Building Information Management (BIM) and 3d laser scans, in the near term up to 50GBb individual file size and collections >30TBb, performantly and without any loss/degradation, sync error or corruption.  \nThe solution needs to provide a user interface that separates the users from directly accessing the back end storage. This user interface needs to be intuitive and provide a positive user experience. \nThe solution will provide options to share files with internal and external collaborators which may be via login, link share or other methodologies.  The solution will provide out of the box interoperability which will enable files to be surfaced (via connector/bridge/API or other methods) via cloud based SAAS applications such as Autodesk Construction Cloud, IBM Maximo, and ESRI ArcGIS, plus SharePoint and Microsoft O365.  It is preferable that any connector/option has been proven in industry with similar clients.\nThe vendor must provide a means of migrating data from legacy sources into the cloud storage. \nThe solution should be hosted in the UK only and highly cyber-secure and resilient, and support all access control requirements. The solution should have a strong business-continuity-and-disaster-recovery offering.  \nThe provider should provide timely high quality project delivery services and excellent post implementation customer support options.\nNote that the SHET has confirmed through proofs of concept that generic file storage (as may be appropriate for office documents) may not be suitable for all such file types and so prospective tenderers are encouraged to carefully validate if their solution can handle such files.",
