Buyer: Transport for London →
Transport for London (TfL) is seeking a specialist support partner to provide 24x7x365 break-fix support and technical expertise for a portfolio of legacy infrastructure technologies that are no longer fully supported by their original vendors. The current estate includes legacy versions of Microsoft Windows Server, SQL Server, Oracle, Solaris and Red Hat platforms. The requirement covers operational support, incident management, service desk provision, escalation management, reporting, cybersecurity compliance, risk management and support for the eventual migration of services to modern supported platforms. TfL requires a service that can scale as the legacy estate changes over time. Suppliers must demonstrate robust operational processes, the ability to mitigate risks associated with unsupported technologies, and commercial flexibility through both managed service and consumption-based support models. TfL is seeking to understand market capability, delivery approaches, commercial structures, and innovation in supporting critical legacy infrastructure within a highly regulated operational environment.

Benchmarked against retained Find a Tender procedures with CPV division 48. The category anchor is Information systems and servers (48800000); 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 set | Procedures | Reported bids per procedure | Named award suppliers | Price evidence |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Market: CPV division 48 | 5,131 | 1 median · 8.9 average (1,852 of 5,131 with a bid count) | 1.7 average (2,127 of 5,131 with named award suppliers) | Not published |
| Same buyer | 9 | Not published | Not published | Not published |
| Delivery region: UKC | 255 | 1 median · 6.3 average (97 of 255 with a bid count) | 1.7 average (115 of 255 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.
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.
