What is being bought

West Yorkshire Fire and Rescue Service (WYFRS) is seeking a suitable supplier to deliver flexible, high-quality training for our Digital, Data and Technology (DDaT) team. The training solution must allow staff to access and exit courses as needed, ensuring operational priorities can always take precedence. Approximately 40 staff members will require training annually. WYFRS require online access to technical IT content, including structured learning pathways, with coverage across key areas such as but not to be limited to: Cloud technologies (e.g., Azure, AWS), Cybersecurity and Information Assurance, Software Development and Programming (e.g., Python, .NET, Java), Data Analytics and Business Intelligence, DevOps and Automation, Networking and Infrastructure, IT Service Management and Governance. In addition, the solution should provide: Manager dashboards for tracking progress and engagement, Reporting capabilities for performance and compliance, and Sandbox environments for hands-on practice and experimentation. The contract duration is currently undefined but is expected to run for a minimum of three years. Suppliers who wish to express an interest in this project should email their expression of interest to tenders@westyorksfire.gov.uk . Please provide contact details, summary of your services and a link to your website.

Comparable-procurement analytics

Benchmarked against retained Find a Tender procedures with CPV division 72. The category anchor is Computer-related services (72500000); 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 723,6661 median · 7.8 average (1,160 of 3,666 with a bid count)1.7 average (1,321 of 3,666 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.
