FLS has a requirement for the provision of a VME Fleet Management System. FLS conducted market research and deemed the Scottish Government Software Value Added Re-seller, Contract Reference – NP5016/17 as the most appropriate. This route aligned with FLS requirements. This is a single supplier collaborative framework, therefore this is direct award. FLS approached 3 pre-qualified suppliers through Softcat and received tenders from each. These were evaluated and scored by FLS staff. The most economically advantageous tender was from Civica with their TranSend Fleet Management System. Due to the nature of this framework, the contract is awarded to Softcat with 100% of the work being subcontracted to Civica.

Comparable-procurement analytics

Benchmarked against retained Find a Tender procedures with CPV division 50. The category anchor is Vehicle-fleet management services (50111100); 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 509,2224 median · 22.4 average (3,783 of 9,222 with a bid count)3.2 average (4,298 of 9,222 with named award suppliers)Not published

Delivery region: UKM3385 median · 68.6 average (159 of 338 with a bid count)4.7 average (193 of 338 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.

Procurement method rationaleFLS conducted market research and deemed the Scottish Government Software Value Added Re-seller (SVAR), Contract Reference – NP5016/17 as the most appropriate. This route aligned with FLS requirements. The incumbent supplier had entered into liquidation which considerably affected FLS timescales. The SVAR framework enabled a quick and compliant route to market allowing FLS to start implementation of a new system swiftly.
