Comparable-procurement analytics

Benchmarked against retained Find a Tender procedures with CPV division 48. The category anchor is Software package and information systems (48000000); 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 486,8371 median · 9.6 average (2,487 of 6,837 with a bid count)1.8 average (2,927 of 6,837 with named award suppliers)Not published

Delivery region: UKJ1242 median · 3.3 average (7 of 24 with a bid count)1 average (8 of 24 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.

        "description": "The UK Atomic Energy Authority (UKAEA) is leading research in the generation of energy from fusion technology, primarily using the Joint European Torus (JET) vessel located at Culham. The current Remote Handling (RH) Safety System, otherwise known as the Emergency Stop System (EMS), has been in use for many years. The system is due to be upgraded and replaced with a modern, fit for purpose, Performance Level (PL) rated system to enable the Remote Handling (RH) plant to operate well into the future.\nTo make the design and manufacture of the EMS simpler, the work package has been split into two sections – Hardware and Software.\nThe Hardware work package focuses on the high-level system architecture and basic hardware needed to make the RH plant machine safety system function. It acts as the glue that holds the machine safety systems of all other RHS Upgrade work packages together. The machine safety system hardware design within other work packages is handled locally by that work package, with EMS being a major interface; EMS dictates the minimum Performance Level requirement (PLr) and hardware needed, with the local work package handling the rest and feeding back into EMS. An example of this is the MASCOT work package, which will design the MASCOT safety system inclusive of the minimum EMS hardware and PLr – EMS then interfaces to this and ensures it functions with the rest of the machine safety system.\nThe Software work package is more encapsulating, being responsible for all machine safety system software within the RHS Upgrade, regardless of work package. This is because the software must be programmed from a central point to all other sub-systems and be in the same software project. In the above example, the MASCOT safety system hardware will be programmed by the EMS work package.\nUKAEA invites initial Expressions of Interest from engineering firms, consultancy groups and academia.

  "description": "The UK Atomic Energy Authority (UKAEA) is leading research in the generation of energy from fusion technology, primarily using the Joint European Torus (JET) vessel located at Culham. The current Remote Handling (RH) Safety System, otherwise known as the Emergency Stop System (EMS), has been in use for many years. The system is due to be upgraded and replaced with a modern, fit for purpose, Performance Level (PL) rated system to enable the Remote Handling (RH) plant to operate well into the future.\nTo make the design and manufacture of the EMS simpler, the work package has been split into two sections – Hardware and Software.\nThe Hardware work package focuses on the high-level system architecture and basic hardware needed to make the RH plant machine safety system function. It acts as the glue that holds the machine safety systems of all other RHS Upgrade work packages together. The machine safety system hardware design within other work packages is handled locally by that work package, with EMS being a major interface; EMS dictates the minimum Performance Level requirement (PLr) and hardware needed, with the local work package handling the rest and feeding back into EMS. An example of this is the MASCOT work package, which will design the MASCOT safety system inclusive of the minimum EMS hardware and PLr – EMS then interfaces to this and ensures it functions with the rest of the machine safety system.\nThe Software work package is more encapsulating, being responsible for all machine safety system software within the RHS Upgrade, regardless of work package. This is because the software must be programmed from a central point to all other sub-systems and be in the same software project. In the above example, the MASCOT safety system hardware will be programmed by the EMS work package.\nUKAEA invites initial Expressions of Interest from engineering firms, consultancy groups and academia.\nThe contract is to be awarded in May 2022 with work to be completed by December 2022, through one contract placed up to a budget of £250,000.00. The total duration of the work will not exceed eight months, with proposed follow-on activities to be carried out over the next 2-5 years.\nUKAEA will host a Webinar during the tender process. The webinar will include presentations on the EMS Hardware design and Q&A sessions for potential applicants to gain more information. Potential applicants are encouraged to attend the webinar for technical information to inform their application. The webinar will be streamed, and a recording will be made publicly available by UKAEA.",
