Coverage: 133 active published awards; 116 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 Unpublished data stays unknown.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.

What is being bought
HM Prison and Probation Service (HMPPS) Prison Retail Service provides approximately 80,000 prisoners with the means to order goods (fresh and frozen food, ambient food and non-foods e.g. toiletries) using their own funds.
The contract is a key operational service in maintaining a stable environment and supports the HMPPS decency agenda, which focuses on normalising aspects of prison life to prepare eligible prisoners for release.
The current solution is provided as part of a nationally managed service providing wholesale goods, logistics/fleet, rehabilitation of prisoners and the management of multiple workshops. At the time of the ITT there will be 18 prison workshops but this is expected to rise over term of contract; these are located within prisons and utilise a minimum of 520 prisoners to pick, pack and dispatch an estimated 66,000 orders a week.
This project is looking at the re-procurement of the service
