Comparable-procurement analytics

Benchmarked against retained Find a Tender procedures with CPV division 60. The category anchor is Transport services (excl. Waste transport) (60000000); 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.

“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.

Operators can then choose whether they want to bid for the requirement or not (it is not compulsory to bid for every opportunity offered, and all operators within the DPS approved Supplier list will be informed of the opportunity, but can choose whether or not to bid on an individual basis).\nTender opportunities are likely to be offered either via an electronic auction (e-auction) exercise or via an electronic quote mechanism (currently In-Tend).\nEstimated value excluding VAT: £95,000,000-£150,000,000. \nFor information, the latest annual spend figure through the current DPS was circa £13.5m. Additional information: Warwickshire County Council will be using its e-tendering system (In-Tend) for the administration of this procurement process and providers must register with the system to be able to express an interest.\nThe web address is: https://in-tendhost.co.uk/csw-jets.\nRegistration and use of In-Tend is free. Once registered, all correspondence for this procurement process must be via the In-Tend correspondence function. However, if you are unable to register with the website please email us at procurement@warwickshire.gov.uk.\nOnce a Supplier has successfully completed their application to the DPS, operators will be advised of the opportunities available as and when they arise. Operators can then choose whether they want to bid for the requirement or not (it is not compulsory to bid for every opportunity offered, and all operators within the DPS approved Supplier list will be informed of the opportunity, but can choose whether or not to bid on an individual basis).\nOperators who win contracts under the DPS will be expected to provide documentary evidence (where necessary) to evidence their status. Individual contract award criteria will be stated in the invitation to tender for the specific contract but will usually be the most economically advantageous tender based on the lowest bid price of those operators satisfying the qualitative criteria specified within each individual contract.",
