(b) Adding additives that reduce the risk of misuse whilst having minimal impact to performance of the product. The following products will be the focus of this work 1. Additives in sodium/calcium hypochlorite, 2. Substitutes for Sodium/calcium hypochlorite, 3. Additives or substitutes for hydrochloric acid, 4. Disruption of Hexa-Methylene Tri-Peroxide Diamine (HMTD). It is anticipated that this work will begin in Dec 2021 / Jan 2022 (latest) and concluded by 31st March 2022. Expressions of Interest are requested to be sent to HOSprocurement@homeoffice.gov.uk with confirmation that they have registered on the Home Office's e-sourcing portal. https://homeoffice.app.jaggaer.com/web/login.html Upon confirmation the Home Office will invite the Supplier to view and access the tender documents.

Comparable-procurement analytics

Benchmarked against retained Find a Tender procedures with CPV division 38. The category anchor is Research, testing and scientific technical simulator (38970000); 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 (1,388 of 2,992 with a bid count)2.6 average (1,589 of 2,992 with named award suppliers)Not published
Same buyer0Not publishedNot publishedNot published
Delivery region: UK7813 median · 35.4 average (296 of 781 with a bid count)5 average (360 of 781 with named award suppliers)Not published
Similar published value (0.5×–2×)2683.5 median · 4 average (4 of 268 with a bid count)1 average (4 of 268 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.
