This modification notice relates to NCA30988. TopHat provide a platform, which is an audience response system (polling) which allows teachers to ask students questions during teaching sessions and provides a summary of answers and helpful reporting features. It integrates with our Virtual Learning Environment (VLE). A new contract has been awarded, contract reference number: EC0976, however the procurement took longer than anticipated. An implementation project for the new contract is currently underway. The current contract NCA30988 is to be extended to 31 December 2023. This will provide the University of Edinburgh with additional time to migrate data and content to the new platform. The value of this contract modification is 9,100.00 GBP, which is below the maximum value of 50%.

Comparable-procurement analytics

Benchmarked against retained Find a Tender procedures with CPV division 79. The category anchor is Public-opinion polling services (79320000); 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 7913,7424 median · 30.9 average (5,805 of 13,742 with a bid count)3.2 average (6,510 of 13,742 with named award suppliers)1 comparable price pairs
Same buyer226 median · 7.9 average (16 of 22 with a bid count)1.5 average (17 of 22 with named award suppliers)Not published
Delivery region: UKM751774 median · 7.8 average (106 of 177 with a bid count)2.3 average (118 of 177 with named award suppliers)1 comparable price pairs

“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.
