Lot details

Lot 1

TfW requires an outsourced Contact Centre provision to handle customer queries as an overflow for a number of multi-modal projects across Wales. In the first instance, customer queries will be received via telephone, but the Tenderer should be capable of delivering a social media, email and webchat provision in the event TfW broadens project scope to include such methods of contact. Due to the overflow nature of this provision, TfW is unable to provide detailed estimates of volumes. The service provision must align to TfW’s Customer Contact Strategy, which can be found in the tender documentation. The TfW Customer Vision is “Engaging people to create continuously improving experiences that place the customer at its heart”. Our Customer Experience Objectives are: - Engaging people to deliver the highest possible standards of customer service - Delivering a high quality and reliable service - Continuously developing the customer proposition - Enable smooth and seamless journeys across Wales - Deliver high quality customer engagement, insights and communication Full scope details can be found in ITT Volume 1 document in the tender documentation.

Comparable-procurement analytics

Benchmarked against retained Find a Tender procedures with CPV division 79. The category anchor is Call centre (79512000); 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 7913,7404 median · 30.9 average (5,803 of 13,740 with a bid count)3.2 average (6,507 of 13,740 with named award suppliers)1 comparable price pairs
Same buyer135 median · 13.3 average (11 of 13 with a bid count)3.2 average (12 of 13 with named award suppliers)Not published
Delivery region: UKL3944 median · 39.9 average (184 of 394 with a bid count)5.4 average (214 of 394 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": "TfW requires an outsourced Contact Centre provision to handle customer queries as an overflow for a number of multi-modal projects across Wales.\nIn the first instance, customer queries will be received via telephone, but the Tenderer should be capable of delivering a social media, email and webchat provision in the event TfW broadens project scope to include such methods of contact.\nDue to the overflow nature of this provision, TfW is unable to provide detailed estimates of volumes.\nThe service provision must align to TfW’s Customer Contact Strategy, which can be found in the tender documentation.\nThe TfW Customer Vision is “Engaging people to create continuously improving experiences that place the customer at its heart”.  Our Customer Experience Objectives are:\n-\tEngaging people to deliver the highest possible standards of customer service\n-\tDelivering a high quality and reliable service\n-\tContinuously developing the customer proposition\n-\tEnable smooth and seamless journeys across Wales\n-\tDeliver high quality customer engagement, insights and communication\nFull scope details can be found in ITT Volume 1 document in the tender documentation.",
