Comparable-procurement analytics

Benchmarked against retained Find a Tender procedures with CPV division 48. The category anchor is Facilities management software package and software package suite (48420000); 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 486,8361 median · 9.6 average (2,487 of 6,836 with a bid count)1.7 average (2,926 of 6,836 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.

Any replacement contract entered into will be for the remaining unexpired initial contract period, with the same ability for the University to extend by a further period or periods of up to five (5) years.\nEntry into any replacement contract with the second ranked tenderer shall be subject to that second ranked tenderer’s offer (including its tender pricing) remaining unchanged from that originally proposed at the tender return deadline. In the event that either: (a) the second ranked tenderer is unable or unwilling to stand over its original tender offer to the University; or (b) the second ranked tenderer is unable or unwilling to enter into a replacement contract with the University on the basis of the same contract terms; or (c) the second ranked tenderer declines the opportunity to enter into a replacement contract with the University for any reason, then the University reserves the right to approach the next highest ranking most economically advantageous tenderer from this Competition in turn on the same basis. This process may, at the University’s discretion, continue until all ranked tenderers have been exhausted or the University decides, at its sole discretion, to undertake a reprocurement\nexercise.",
