What is being bought

Kaleidoscope Multi Academy trust consists of 7 primary schools with a circa of 1952 pupils based in North Somerset. Kaleidoscope's central office is based at St Martins CofE Primary school. At Kaleidoscope, we see ourselves as developing the whole child. This includes developing a love of learning, enabling our children to become inquiring and resilient learners, supporting their wellbeing and helping them to understand and see their role in the local, national and global context. We also want our children to enjoy reading and read for pleasure. This is at the heart of everything and provides access to wider learning opportunities. This procurement tender is to appoint a single MFD partner for the trust to include an operating lease of equipment and contract servicing. Any future schools or provisions that may join the trust will also be added to the MFD contract and will co-terminate to the same end date of the initial contract. The value of the contract estimates to be between £95,000 and £115,000, for the period of 1st October 2025 to 30th September 2028, with further information available within the Tender Specification.

Comparable-procurement analytics

Benchmarked against retained Find a Tender procedures with CPV division 30. The category anchor is Photocopiers (30121100); 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

“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.
