Coverage: 125 active published awards; 77 bid reports (which may be per lot). Supplier values exclude multi-supplier awards, frameworks and DPS, and use GBP only. They are published award values, not payments. Published-to-award variance compares single-lot, single-award, single-supplier GBP procedures with explicitly non-framework/non-DPS status; increases remain in the average. Unpublished data stays unknown. Awarded suppliers are winners, not all bidders.

Planning and rationale

No-engagement rationaleNot published |
Procedure rationaleThe absence of competition ground under Regulation 32(2)(b)(ii) is relevant as, based upon UKHSA’s requirements and market intelligence, there appears to be a monopoly market that applies in the current case. Operational colleagues have confirmed that although a potential alternative platform could be used, this would come with significant drawbacks.<br/>In addition and in the alternative, as the only supplier of the product, the protection of exclusive rights (in the form of patents owned or exclusively licensed by CN Bio as well as trade secrets and know-how) under Regulation 32(2)(b)(iii) would similarly apply in this case. |
