What is being bought

Provision of Graduation Marquee to be sited on Plymouth Hoe for July 2024 Graduation Ceremonies. Following a pin notice exercise, Danco was the only supplier of suitable size, reputation and within budget that provided a quote for September 2023 – this was approved. They have delivered the marquee on Plymouth Hoe since 2008 and have a track record of good service with UoP. At very short notice July 2024 ceremonies have been instructed and we need continuity of supplier.

Comparable-procurement analytics

Benchmarked against retained Find a Tender procedures with CPV division 44. The category anchor is Construction structures and materials; auxiliary products to construction (except electric apparatus) (44000000); 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 443,8556 median · 37.3 average (1,491 of 3,855 with a bid count)5.7 average (1,625 of 3,855 with named award suppliers)Not published

Delivery region: UKK41101 median · 1 average (1 of 10 with a bid count)1 average (3 of 10 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 strategy & market signals

Framework agreementNot published
Dynamic purchasing systemNot published
Competitive procurementNot published
Recurring requirementNot published
Procurement method rationaleTo be procured under Regulation 32 of PCR2015 (Use of the negotiated procedure without prior publication). Alternative Graduation solution for July 2024 required to be mobilised urgently as a result of the intended venue falling through. Reg 32 (c) Extreme urgency created Reg 32 (9) "The negotiated procedure without prior publication may be used for new services consisting of the repetition of similar works or services entrusted to the economic operator to which the same contracting authority awarded an original contract, provided that such services are in conformity with a basic project for which the original contract was awarded following a procedure in accordance with regulation 26 (1) and (2)." Previously a LTR Procurement process awarded a multi-year contract to Danco in 2017 for the provision of graduation marquee services in the same location as the 2024 ceremony. Justification: The set-up and take down of the marquee for a 2024 graduation is the same format as prior years which Danco have been previously contracted to deliver for the University of Plymouth through a compliant Light Touch Regime process (79952000-2 (Event services). Securing the hire of the required marquee, staffing and associated infrastructure ahead of summer 2024 requires urgent action and precludes running a tender process in accordance with regulation 26.
