What is being bought

We are looking to establish a preferred supplier for external technical training and qualifications. To give us the flexibility we need, suppliers should ideally be able to source individual places on public courses, as well as provide tailored group solutions to be delivered onsite at our GMC offices or offsite if required. We require the successful supplier to be able to provide digital learning offerings in lieu of face to face training as and when required. Occasionally we may also need providers to work with us collaboratively on bespoke group training requests. We’ve split this tender into two areas or lots. The lots are: a) Information Systems – LOT A b) Accredited Project Management/LEAN Practices – LOT B; Suppliers can bid for one or both lots.

Comparable-procurement analytics

Benchmarked against retained Find a Tender procedures with CPV division 79. The category anchor is Personnel-training services (79632000); 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 7911,5804 median · 30.8 average (4,772 of 11,580 with a bid count)3.1 average (5,325 of 11,580 with named award suppliers)1 comparable price pairs

Delivery region: UK3,1614 median · 60.2 average (1,241 of 3,161 with a bid count)5 average (1,447 of 3,161 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.
