MAG is seeking to establish a Multi-Supplier Framework to facilitate a controlled, yet flexible method of procuring Aeronautical Ground Lighting (AGL) fixtures, fittings and components across a diverse asset base. The requirement will incorporate Manchester (MAN), East Midlands (EMA) and Stansted (STN) Airports. It is MAG's intention that the Framework will allow for both Direct Award and Mini-Competition mechanisms to facilitate the purchase of goods. MAG will be following a Competitive Flexible Procedure (CFP) which will evaluate Bidders against the below criteria: - Technical Competency (including ESG) - Commercial Value - Legal Compliance Further information will be available in the subsequent Tender documents.

| Item | Category | Quantity |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Runway lights | Not published |
Benchmarked against retained Find a Tender procedures with CPV division 34. The category anchor is Runway lights (34997210); 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 34 | 1,559 | 2 median · 14.3 average (393 of 1,559 with a bid count) | 3.2 average (437 of 1,559 with named award suppliers) | Not published |
| Same buyer | 1 | Not published | Not published | Not published |
| Delivery region: UKD | 91 | 2.5 median · 4.9 average (28 of 91 with a bid count) | 1.3 average (30 of 91 with named award suppliers) | Not published |
| Similar published value (0.5×–2×) | 125 | 25 median · 29.3 average (3 of 125 with a bid count) | 9.3 average (3 of 125 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.
No planning milestones published.
No linked framework, prior procurement or reprocurement published.
Diagnostic view. “Not published” means this current release does not provide a value.

"description": "The Authority intends to establish a multi-supplier Framework for the provision of Airfield Ground Lighting (AGL) products and services across Manchester, Stansted and East Midlands Airports.\nCall-Off Contracts under the Framework may be awarded by:\n1. Direct Award; or \n2. Further Competition between Framework Suppliers.\nThe Authority will determine the appropriate call-off mechanism in accordance with the nature of the requirement and the conditions set out below. The selected approach will be applied objectively, transparently and consistently.\nDue to the operational environment and existing infrastructure across the Authority's airports, certain AGL systems are proprietary in nature, including (but not limited to) control systems, circuits, fittings, and associated equipment.\nWhere a Call-Off requirement relates to:\n- existing proprietary AGL systems; \n- extensions, modifications, or upgrades to installed infrastructure; \n- replacement of components requiring compatibility with existing systems; \n- works or services requiring system-specific technical knowledge, software access, or OEM accreditation; or \n- continuity of service for critical airfield operations where integration with existing systems is required,\nthe Authority may use Direct Award.\nIn such circumstances, the Authority will award the Call-Off Contract to the Framework Supplier that is objectively identified as:\n- the original equipment manufacturer (OEM); \n- an authorised supplier, maintainer, or integrator of the relevant system; or \n- the only Framework Supplier capable of delivering the requirement without introducing technical, operational or safety risk.\nThe basis for Direct Award will be demonstrably linked to:\n- system compatibility requirements; \n- technical constraints of the existing asset base; and \n- the need to ensure safe, compliant and uninterrupted airfield operations.\nDirect Award will not be used where more than one Framework Supplier is capable of delivering the requirement without modification to the existing system or without introducing material delivery or performance risk.",
