Coverage: 273 active published awards; 267 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. Published-to-award variance 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 Unpublished data stays unknown.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.

What is being bought
FLS have sponsored a CivTech Pre-Commercial Procurement project since 2019 to develop better nursery technology. One of the key technologies to be developed as part of that process was use of a tape based system. Changes to the market mean that the provider of this technology is no longer able to access the intellectual property, and that a different supplier has exclusivity to use this technology.
