What is being bought

Published requirement description

In April 2015, the MOD signed a thirteen year contract with Leidos Europe Ltd to provide the procurement and inventory management of commodity items (as well as the storage and distribution services), that were historically provided in-house by the Logistic Commodities and Services Operating Centre.

Leidos, working with the MOD, will transform the way these services are delivered to ensure requirements continue to be met whilst providing best value for money for the department. The organisation delivering these services is known as Team Leidos.

Team Leidos are proud to be delivering the logistics commodities and services transformation (LCS(T)) Delivery partner contracts (LCS (T)/0001 dated 16.4.2015) on behalf of the UK Ministry of Defence (MoD) (the 'Prime Contract'). Delivery of other parts of the LCS(T) contract are delivered by Leidos Europe Ltd (LEL) and other partners (together 'Team Leidos'). This requirement is subject to the Public Procurement Regulations and respective advertising action.

The Medical Team, which forms part of Leidos Supply Ltd. is considering the potential requirement for the supply and support of Spromiters on behalf of the UK MoD.

The total estimated value for this Agreement will be between £520,000.00- £1,625,000.00 with a total length of 4 Years.

In addition, please note that as a framework agreement there is no guarantee of business.

If this is of further interest, please register on our eProcurement system, Jaggaer: leidos-supply.app.jaggaer.com ↗

Bidders will be able to register on the system, and once registered they can express their interest and complete their bid on there. Should Bidders have any queries regarding the system, please contact the support team on the front page of the Jaggaer website, where it says 'Need assistance?', for help. Anyqueries regarding the tender itself, as opposed to the system, should be directed through Jaggaer's messaging centre.

What it takes to win
i

How this buyer will score bids.

The evaluation criteria and weights exactly as published on the notice, grouped by family (price, quality, social value and so on).

Evaluation split and conditions of participation as published; the tender pack may add more
How bids are scored
  • Qualification Stage: Bidders must achieve a PASS mark for all PASS/FAIL questions in order to be deemed compliant in the Qualification stage. Failure of any of the questions may result in a Bidder’s Tender not being evaluated further, past the point of failure.
  • Technical Stage: Bidders who have successfully passed the Qualification Envelope will progress to the Technical Envelope evaluation. A benchmark score of 60% or higher is required for the weighted questions within the Question Set in order to be deemed compliant. Where applicable consensus of evaluators will be held, in order to establish an agreed score for responses. Failure of any of the questions may result in a Bidder’s Tender not being evaluated further, past the point of failure.
  • Commercial Stage: The submitted prices of any Bidders whose bids have passed all the previous phases will be assessed. Leidos Supply Limited (LSL) intends to award a minimum of one contract for this requirement. However, LSL reserves the right to award multiple contracts if necessary to ensure full coverage of the Schedule of Requirements (SoR) items and best value for money.
What this means for your bid
  • “LSL/MED/0210 - The Supply and Support of Spirometers - Preliminary…” is a framework: the contest is a place on its panel, not a single contract.

How the contest usually goes

Winner shares use published awards; bid and price charts use contested lots.

Question for the bid
This buyerLEIDOS SUPPLY, LIMITED · all categories
What to do with it
How often do SMEs win?
i

How often small and medium firms win.

Share of awards where the winner’s size is known.

The counts under this question show how many awards have a known supplier size.

Last 36 months.

Buyer: 22 of 35 known-size awards · market: CPV 4461 · UK-wide, n=10
63%100%

Small firms have won here. Neither number says whether you qualify; it describes who has been winning.

How often do local suppliers win?
i

How often local firms win similar work.

Winners with a registered address in the delivery region, out of awards with a known address.

Here, local means the winner is registered in the region where that contract was delivered.

A local branch does not count if the registered address is elsewhere.

Last 36 months.

Buyer: no winner locations published · market: CPV 4461 · UK-wide, n=15
—27%

No winner locations published for this authority. Local means a registered address in South West England.

How long to a decision?
i

How long buyers here take to decide after bids close.

Middle value in days from the deadline to the first award notice, on competitions that published both dates.

Only decided tenders count, so slow ones still waiting are not in.

Last 36 months.

Buyer: 12 decided notices · market: division 44 · UK-wide, n=46
138 days77 days

Half of these awards were announced within 138 days of the bid deadline.

How often single-bid or direct?
i

How often work is awarded with no recorded rival.

Direct awards and tenders where every published lot count shows one bid.

Both shares are minimums: some awards have no bid count.

Thin markets produce this too; it is not proof of a tailored specification.

Last 36 months.

Buyer: at least 15 of 38 procurements with awards had no recorded rival · market: CPV 4461 · UK-wide, n=8
39%13%

Direct awards or one recorded bid are common here. Check the route before spending time on a bid.

How many bids did past lots attract?

i

How many bids past lots received.

Each colour is a bid-count range. Only competed lots with a published count are included.

Past bids do not predict this tender.

How did awards compare with estimates?

i

Where winning prices landed against estimates.

Each colour shows awards below, close to or above the published estimate, one lot at a time.

On a framework or DPS, prices are agreed when work is called off.

Past prices are a guide, not a bid price.

Last 36 months.

Not comparable on a framework or DPS. The notice sets up a supplier panel and a ceiling value; what the work actually costs is agreed later, on each call-off or mini-competition, and those publish as contract notices of their own. The award-vs-estimate record of this market therefore sits on the call-offs; this page shows it on the contracts, not on the panel that frames them.

i

Where the award price may land.

The forecast uses similar awards and the buyer’s estimate. The band covers the middle half of likely prices.

No comparable awards for this lot yet.

A statistical guide from past awards, not a price to bid.

—Priced at call-off
On a framework or DPS the price is agreed on each call-off, so there is no award price to forecast here: the published figure is a ceiling.

Who has supplied this buyer on similar work?
i

Who has done similar work for this buyer.

Past contracts are matched by buyer, title and type of work.

About this data
  • Source. Official UK public procurement notices (Find a Tender), reused under the Open Government Licence v3.0. New notices arrive through the day; the figures are rebuilt nightly.
  • Two views, kept apart. The authority’s own track record and the wider market for the same kind of work sit side by side and are never mixed. Where the local picture is too thin, a figure widens to a broader market and says which one it used.
  • Forecasts are labelled. The price forecast and its range, possible competitors and the earlier-work matches are our estimates from past awards: not published facts, not win chances and not price advice. Official notices do not say who is bidding.
  • Every figure shows what it rests on. Not every notice publishes a bid count, a value or a delivery region, so each figure carries the number of records behind it, and one built on few records is marked as such. The on a figure explains it; the counting rules are in the methodology. Spotted something wrong? Tell us.
