Comparable-procurement analytics

Benchmarked against retained Find a Tender procedures with CPV division 72. The category anchor is Information technology services (72222300); 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 724,8171 median · 11.1 average (1,657 of 4,817 with a bid count)1.8 average (1,945 of 4,817 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 NHSBSA Security and Information Governance department under People and Corporate Services directorate is responsible for information held by the NHSBSA, representing one of our most valuable assets. Without that information the NHSBSA could not operate. This means that anything within the NHSBSA that uses that information must be protected against the many possible threats. Information Governance (IG) covers three areas, namely: Records management; Data Protection; and Freedom of Information. The aim of IG is to support the protection, control and management of the NHSBSA's information assets. IG applies to all systems; electronic and non-electronic; and applies to all business areas, sites and departments in the NHSBSA. The information systems we manage currently use controls to help make sure the security of the information they hold is high. NHSBSA require a redaction tool to support it's statutory deadlines for SAR's, FOI, and other information rights requests. The aim of this market engagement is to help inform our procurement process in regard to product/service availability and Route to Market.
