Coverage: 17 active published awards; 11 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.

Unpublished data stays unknown. Awarded suppliers are winners, not all bidders.

Procedure rationaleThe conditions in Schedule 5, paragraph 5 of the Procurement Act 2023 are met. The supplier holds intellectual property and other exclusive rights in relation to the existing finance system, meaning only that supplier can provide the required support, maintenance and hosting services. There are no reasonable alternatives to these services without replacement of the existing system.
