Coverage: 26 active published awards; 19 bid reports (which may be per lot). Supplier values exclude multi-supplier awards, frameworks and DPS, and use GBP only. They are published award values, not payments. Published-to-award variance compares single-lot, single-award, single-supplier GBP procedures with explicitly non-framework/non-DPS status; increases remain in the average. Unpublished data stays unknown. Awarded suppliers are winners, not all bidders.

Procedure rationaleRegulation 8 of the 2016 Regulations provides that the 2016 Regulations apply to services concession contracts with an estimated value of 5,193,000 GBP (inclusive of VAT) (indicative value excluding 20% VAT – 4,327,500 GBP).
The estimated value of the proposed contract that is the subject of this notice – which is a services concession contract – is below the threshold at which the 2016 Regulations apply and public procurement of the contract in terms of the 2016 Regulations is not therefore necessary. |
