Payment obligations depend on the applicable regime and contract. Consult the official documents.
Coverage: 12 active published awards; 11 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. Price reduction 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 Unpublished data stays unknown.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.

Procedure rationaleThomson Reuters is the major suppliers of legal publications used by SCTS. They are publishers of the material we purchase, and having a de-facto monopoly, they are the only one that can provide the material. An attempt had been made by procurement to see if intermediaries were able to provide better agreements but being the material published by Thomson Reuters, they are the only one able to provide a better deal.
