What is being bought

YPO is looking to tender for a new Learning Management System. A single platform for consolidating learning and compliance activity which will improve accuracy of reporting, remove duplicated processes, reduce licensing and support costs, and create a simplified learner experience. A modern LMS will also support internally delivered training, provide greater automation, improve accessibility for operational teams, and align YPO's learning infrastructure with wider organisational digitalisation and workforce development priorities.

Comparable-procurement analytics

Benchmarked against retained Find a Tender procedures with CPV division 48. The category anchor is Software package and information systems (48000000); 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 483,5291 median · 6.1 average (1,170 of 3,529 with a bid count)1.5 average (1,342 of 3,529 with named award suppliers)Not published

Delivery region: UKE2241 median · 3.7 average (101 of 224 with a bid count)1.1 average (113 of 224 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.

    "description": "YPO currently delivers learning, compliance training, and policy acknowledgement through a fragmented ecosystem made up of multiple platforms. This fragmentation has resulted in duplicated compliance processes, parallel content catalogues, and multiple locations for learners to access mandatory training and policies.\nBeyond corporate learning, the platform must support other critical organisational functions, including digital skills development and the training delivered by the IT Training Team, who require more flexibility to host internally produced content, build tailored Microsoft 365 and systems training pathways, and access reliable analytics to assess capability needs. \nThis procurement is required to address the performance, usability, and scalability constraints of the current system, and to reduce the operational inefficiencies created by maintaining multiple systems for learning and compliance. Continuing with the current set up would result in ongoing administrative overhead, inconsistent compliance tracking, limited reporting intelligence, and poor learner engagement, ultimately restricting YPO's ability to support workforce development and statutory training requirements.",
