Lot details

Lot 1

Following the VEAT Notice published on 31 March 2021, this is the award notice for the disaggregation of Oracle Database Software Subscriptions from the Scottish Government Universal Licence Agreement. COPFS previously purchased annual subscriptions through a collaborative Universal Licence Agreement between the Scottish Government and Oracle. Scottish Government and Oracle have negotiated to disaggregate the subscriptions to individual organisations as an exit from the agreement, which means COPFS needs to contract directly with Oracle at the prices agreed by Oracle and the Scottish Government. Due to the unique position regarding the exit of the agreement competition is absent. COPFS has purchased 126 x Oracle Database Enterprise Edition, 6 x Partitioning, 126 x Tuning Pack and 126 x Diagnostic Pack for 12 months.

Comparable-procurement analytics

Benchmarked against retained Find a Tender procedures with CPV division 48. The category anchor is Database software package (48611000); 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 486,8361 median · 9.6 average (2,487 of 6,836 with a bid count)1.7 average (2,926 of 6,836 with named award suppliers)Not published
Same buyer0Not publishedNot publishedNot published
Delivery region: UKM2163 median · 5.4 average (89 of 216 with a bid count)1.5 average (107 of 216 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.

COPFS previously purchased annual subscriptions through a collaborative Universal Licence Agreement between the Scottish Government and Oracle. Scottish Government and Oracle have negotiated to disaggregate the subscriptions to individual organisations as an exit from the agreement, which means COPFS needs to contract directly with Oracle at the prices agreed by Oracle and the Scottish Government. Due to the unique position regarding the exit of the agreement competition is absent. COPFS intends to purchase 126 x Oracle Database Enterprise Edition, 6 x Partitioning, 126 x Tuning Pack and 126 x Diagnostic Pack for 12 months."
