What is being bought

The aim of this tender was to procure a Cashless Catering and Online Payment Solution in accordance with the Statement of Requirements, for use by School Catering and Education and Children’s Services (ECS). Aberdeenshire Council currently has two separate contracts in place for a cashless catering and online payment solution that are nearing expiry. The Catering Service must ensure it has an appropriate solution in place that will continue to provide a front of house service and also to generate the accurate critical data that is required to run reports for data analysis that will help the Service to continue to operate efficiently. There is also a desire to push more payments online to stop the need for cash handling that is presently undertaken by staff and reduce the associated risks with those processes.

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

“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.
