What is being bought

This notice records that Harper Adams University is tendering alongside a group of other UK universities as part of a property insurance procurement buying group. The collaboration, co-ordinated by AON, will allow economies of scale to be obtained by running the procurement process on behalf of the group, though each institution will contract separately with the winning bidder(s). Each university is acting independently, will not share commercially sensitive information, and will publish its own notices under the Procurement Act 2023. The universities involved in the procurement are: Lincoln Bishop University (www.lincolnbishop.ac.uk) Edge Hill University (www.edgehill.ac.uk Harper Adams University (www.harper-adams.ac.uk) Liverpool Hope University (www.hope.ac.uk) Birmingham Newman University (www.newman.ac.uk) Ravensbourne University London (www.rave.ac.uk) York St John University (www.yorksj.ac.uk)

Comparable-procurement analytics

Benchmarked against retained Find a Tender procedures with CPV division 66. The category anchor is Financial and insurance services (66000000); 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 661,2033 median · 18.4 average (394 of 1,203 with a bid count)2 average (452 of 1,203 with named award suppliers)Not published

Delivery region: UKC891 median · 14.7 average (33 of 89 with a bid count)2 average (36 of 89 with named award suppliers)Not published
Similar published value (0.5×–2×)864 median · 4 average (1 of 86 with a bid count)1 average (1 of 86 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.
