Coverage: 26 active published awards; 2 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. Published-to-award variance compares single-lot, single-award, single-supplier GBP procedures with explicitly non-framework/non-DPS status; increases remain in the average. Unpublished data stays unknown. Awarded suppliers are winners, not all bidders.

What is being bought
CPD will put a collaborative contract in place for Couriering for use by a list of named NI public sector bodies. The scope of the courier requirement will cover the collection, sorting and delivery of a range of consignments (envelopes, reports, parcels, case files, and blood and tissue samples) on an advanced or ad hoc basis to various locations. These consignments will be collected and delivered under specific service classes – Next Day, Same Day, UK, International or Tracked. Given the need to provide specialist and generalist courier services, the competition will be structured in separate Lots.
