Lot details

Lot 1

Support and maintenance of existing Content Management System. Contensis is the current CMS used for the provision of intranet services within the University of Birmingham. The current agreement is due to expire on 30/11/2024. Over the next 12 months the University will be in the process of restructuring our entire website - both in terms of the user experience but also in terms of how that data is structured. As part of migrating to a new version of our current CMS we are overhauling the way the information is stored which will give us flexibility around the portability of the data in the future. Completing this phase of work will put us in a much better position in terms of being able to migrate to another CMS following a competitive tender exercise. We are in the process of carrying out a rebrand and rebrand of components across the website. While these will be built into Contensis, we are building them into a digital design system in a CMS-agnostic way so that they are portable. In the future these can be moved to other websites/CMS platforms as needed. Completing this work before any market exercise has the potential to reduce implementation times should another CMS provider be identified. A two year contract extension will enable the University to prepare for a new contract to be in place from 01/12/2026.

Comparable-procurement analytics

Benchmarked against retained Find a Tender procedures with CPV division 48. The category anchor is Content management software package (48783000); 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 (2,488 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.
