What is being bought

The British Business Bank is exploring the market for an enterprise grade portfolio management system which meets the needs of the Bank when acting as both a Limited Partner (LP) and General Partner (GP). The solution will be required to service an existing equity portfolio of investments and be sufficiently scalable to support the deployment of an additional £4.5bn of capital in line with the Government's Industrial Strategy and the Bank's Five Year Strategic Plan. The product will require a robust, scalable, and configurable system capable of managing the entire investment lifecycle - deal flow, KYC, capital calls and distributions, valuations, investment book of record, accounting book of record, financial risk rating, sector and regional analysis, portfolio look through capability for our fund programmes and reporting. The purpose of this premarket engagement is to gather information from potential suppliers on available solutions, understand market trends and best practice and to understand their pricing models. This is not a formal procurement but an opportunity to inform our future requirements and procurement strategy. We welcome input from suppliers on solution capabilities, implementation timelines, potential risks, and commercial models. Completion of the questionnaire will be the basis of this pre-market engagement. This notice will be kept open until February 20th 2026 at 23:00, please ensure that your questionnaire is completed and submitted via Delta by this time, February 20th 2026 at 23:00. A copy of the questionnaire is available via the following link: https://www.delta-esourcing.com/respond/485QFS2P6Y Following completion and submission of the questionnaire BBB may ask suppliers to provide a demonstration of their system.

Comparable-procurement analytics

Benchmarked against retained Find a Tender procedures with CPV division 66. The category anchor is Banking and investment services (66100000); 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 662,7583 median · 17.2 average (1,185 of 2,758 with a bid count)2.5 average (1,317 of 2,758 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.
