What is being bought

FARO is our Fund analysis, reporting & ordering system, the platform uses an SFTP transfer mechanism to receive data from Custodians, this is transferred into a Microsoft Fabric environment for processing within the tooling, based largely upon Microsoft Excel and Forms. We require a supplier to take on the ongoing development and maintenance of the platform to ensure system availability, data integrity and undertake the development of additional capabilities as required.

Comparable-procurement analytics

Benchmarked against retained Find a Tender procedures with CPV division 66. The category anchor is Pension fund consultancy services (66523000); 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 661,4033 median · 15.9 average (507 of 1,403 with a bid count)2.1 average (573 of 1,403 with named award suppliers)Not published
Same buyer22 median · 2 average (2 of 2 with a bid count)1 average (2 of 2 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.
