What is being bought

The University of South Wales is inviting suppliers to tender for the provision of an innovative online digital prospectus solution. We are seeking a modern brochure management platform that can deliver a highly personalised, interactive, and fully accessible experience for prospective students. The solution should support the dynamic creation of tailored content based on user input, with the option to download or generate professionally formatted, print-ready versions. The platform must offer flexibility, ease of use, and have the potential to integrate securely with existing university systems, including our Customer Relationship Management (CRM) platform. Please see the tender documentation for further information.

Comparable-procurement analytics

Benchmarked against retained Find a Tender procedures with CPV division 22. The category anchor is Printed matter and related products (22000000); 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 223173 median · 15.3 average (102 of 317 with a bid count)3.7 average (114 of 317 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.
