Comparable-procurement analytics

Benchmarked against retained Find a Tender procedures with CPV division 79. The category anchor is Market research services (79310000); 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
Market: CPV division 7913,7414 median · 30.9 average (5,805 of 13,741 with a bid count)3.2 average (6,509 of 13,741 with named award suppliers)1 comparable price pairs

Delivery region: UKM6194 median · 19.5 average (359 of 619 with a bid count)4.1 average (405 of 619 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.

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.

This review will help identify if and how business support services can be provided in future, whether through outsourcing or by in-house resources, which will support the development of a new procurement strategy for the tendering of new and / or replacement service provisions where appropriate.\nThis modification is being used to extend the period of the framework agreement only, until Tuesday 31 December 2024, with a single three (3) month extension option – to Monday 31 March 2025 – included for contingency purposes only.  It does change the character of the original framework agreement or extend the scope of Services to be provided.  There is also no change to the maximum value, which remains 5,000,00.00 GBP exclusive of Value Added Tax (VAT).\nAs such, the modification does not meet any of the conditions defined in regulation 72(8) of the Public Contracts (Scotland) Regulations and is therefore not considered substantial."

While we cannot guarantee that further support services will be required, we consider a further extension to be prudent so that it can be used facilitate continued delivery of Services within the scope of the CEBS framework agreement in the event that those services become necessary before the establishment of new  / replacement contracts.",

This review will help identify if and how business support services can be provided in future, whether through outsourcing or by in-house resources, which will support the development of a new procurement strategy for the tendering of new and / or replacement service provisions where appropriate.\nThis modification is being used to extend the period of the framework agreement only, until Tuesday 31 December 2024, with a single three (3) month extension option – to Monday 31 March 2025 – included for contingency purposes only.  It does change the character of the original framework agreement or extend the scope of Services to be provided.  There is also no change to the maximum value, which remains 5,000,00.00 GBP exclusive of Value Added Tax (VAT).\nAs such, the modification does not meet any of the conditions defined in regulation 72(8) of the Public Contracts (Scotland) Regulations and is therefore not considered substantial."

Zero Waste Scotland does not commit to any minimum or maximum spend for any framework supplier or for any individual Lot - this will be determined through the appropriate call off processes.\nThe cumulative value of all concluded call off contracts shall not exceed the maximum value of the framework agreement.\n(SC Ref:760631)",
