Comparable-procurement analytics

Benchmarked against retained Find a Tender procedures with CPV division 48. The category anchor is Software package and information systems (48000000); 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

“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 method rationaleFunding for this contract has been provided by the Office For Students which has strict conditions with regards to timelines by which the funding provided has to be spent. Any delay in awarding this contract would risk the Office For Students withdrawing funding from Oxford Brookes University Virtual reality is an emerging immersive technology in medical training. OMS has been created by clinicians for clinicians. The platform provides training to healthcare professionals in a unique and interactive way allowing learners to practice and learn from their mistakes in a way that is safe and supported. The OMS Platform has been trialed by several other HEE regions and is now being adopted more widely as an everyday teaching tool. Additionally, OMS has been selected as one of only 12 companies to be part of the NHS Innovation Accelerator in 2021, after undergoing a rigorous evaluation process. This initiative supports high-impact, evidence-based innovations to scale within the NHS - which provides a further level of evaluation. As a result, the Oxford Brookes University believes that Public. Contracts Regulations 2015, Regulation 32(2) applies. Regulation 32(2) states: "The negotiated procedures without prior publication may be used for public works contracts, public supply contracts and public service contracts in any of the following cases:- (b) where the works, supplies or services can be supplied only by a particular economic operator for any of the following reasons:- (ii) competition is absent for technical reasons..." (c) insofar as is strictly necessary where, for reasons of extreme urgency brought about by events unforeseeable by the contracting authority, the time limits for the open or restricted procedures or competitive procedures with negotiation cannot be complied with.
Rationale classificationsThe works, supplies or services can be provided only by a particular economic operator due to absence of competition for technical reasons, Extreme urgency brought about by events unforeseeable for the contracting authority/entity and in accordance with the strict conditions stated in the directive

OMS has been created by clinicians for clinicians. The platform provides training to healthcare professionals in a unique and interactive way allowing learners to practice and learn from their mistakes in a way that is safe and supported.\nThe OMS Platform has been trialed by several other HEE regions and is now being adopted more widely as an everyday teaching tool. Additionally, OMS has been selected as one of only 12 companies to be part of the NHS Innovation Accelerator in 2021, after undergoing a rigorous evaluation process. This initiative supports high-impact, evidence-based innovations to scale within the NHS - which provides a further level of evaluation.\nAs a result, the Oxford Brookes University believes that Public. Contracts Regulations 2015, Regulation 32(2) applies.\nRegulation 32(2) states:\n\"The negotiated procedures without prior publication may be used for public works contracts, public supply contracts and public service contracts in any of the following cases:-\n(b) where the works, supplies or services can be supplied only by a particular economic operator for any of the following reasons:-\n(ii) competition is absent for technical reasons...\"\n(c) insofar as is strictly necessary where, for reasons of extreme urgency brought about by events unforeseeable by the contracting authority, the time limits for the open or restricted procedures or competitive procedures with negotiation cannot be complied with.",
