What is being bought

We have now awarded this requirement: The University is seeking to procure a cloud-based Enterprise Service Management (ESM) solution to facilitate the management of all aspects of service to staff, students and external partners, beginning with existing users (>400) of our current system in the first instance, but extending to other parts of the university in the near future in a phased approach. All staff and students will need access to the customer facing portal. We will also need to offer guest access to external enquirers including alumni, prospective students and contacts in other organisations, such as the local council and other government or higher education authorities.

Comparable-procurement analytics

Benchmarked against retained Find a Tender procedures with CPV division 48. The category anchor is Enterprise resource planning software package (48451000); 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 486,8361 median · 9.6 average (2,487 of 6,836 with a bid count)1.7 average (2,926 of 6,836 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.

We want to ensure that all members of the University receive a consistent support experience across all areas of delivery, simplifying access to services and removing the need to know the workings of the organization, in order to get help promptly at the point of need.   We want to focus on a positive user experience and exploit functionality to aid back-office efficiency e.g. workflow and automation. \nThe University is seeking to procure a cloud-based Enterprise Service Management (ESM) solution to facilitate the management of all aspects of service to staff, students and external partners, beginning with existing users (>400) of our current system in the first instance, but extending to other parts of the university in the near future in a phased approach.
