This Framework will provide end-to-end solutions for the secure storage, management, digitisation, governance and disposal of physical and digital information assets. It covers records storage and lifecycle management, IT asset disposal, document scanning and workflow automation, information governance and cloud services, alongside specialist advisory support, enabling organisations to manage information securely and compliantly throughout its lifecycle. This questionnaire is designed to understand supplier experiences, challenges, and expectations regarding Records Information Management frameworks. Your responses will help us design a framework that meets the needs of suppliers and customers to improve the procurement and delivery experience across all areas within the Public Sector.

Comparable-procurement analytics

Benchmarked against retained Find a Tender procedures with CPV division 72. The category anchor is Business analysis consultancy services (72221000); 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 724,3221 median · 7.9 average (1,458 of 4,322 with a bid count)1.7 average (1,687 of 4,322 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.

The purpose of this engagement is to: Understand whether the market can meet our requirements and identify any constraints or opportunities. Gather supplier feedback to ensure specifications are realistic, achievable, and aligned with industry standards. Use insights to determine the most appropriate route to market, contract structure, and commercial model. Provide early visibility of the opportunity to a broad supplier base, supporting fair and open competition. Identify potential risks and innovative solutions early, reducing the likelihood of delays or poor delivery post-award. By engaging with the market at an early stage, we will improve the quality of our tender documents, attract a wider pool of capable suppliers, and ultimately deliver better value for money and service outcomes.engagement25 Sept 2026scheduled
