Comparable-procurement analytics

Benchmarked against retained Find a Tender procedures with CPV division 38. The category anchor is Biomedical equipment (38434540); 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 382,9922 median · 12 average (1,387 of 2,992 with a bid count)2.6 average (1,588 of 2,992 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.

Procurement strategy & market signals

Framework agreementNot published
Dynamic purchasing systemNot published
Competitive procurementNot published
Recurring requirementNot published
Procurement method rationaleThe Western Health and Social Care Trust are relying on regulation 32(2)(b), competition is absent for technical reasons. Illumina is the sole supplier of this specific high throughput sequencing technology/ platform. Illumina sequencing technology, sequencing by synthesis (SBS), is a widely adopted next-generation sequencing (NGS) technology worldwide. Illumina sequencing instruments and reagents support massively parallel, high-throughput sequencing using a proprietary method that detects single bases as they are incorporated into growing DNA strands. Nextseq2000 provides higher sensitivity to detect low-frequency variants, faster turnaround time for high sample volumes, comprehensive genomic coverage, lower limit of detection, higher capacity with sample multiplexing, ability to sequence hundreds to thousands of genes or gene regions simultaneously.
Rationale classificationsThe works, supplies or services can be provided only by a particular economic operator due to absence of competition for technical reasons
