Clement What the numbers say about this buyer

  • 2% of this buyer's awards went to companies that had already won here before (52 awards since 2018, spread over 28 companies). That is well below the national norm (39%) — this buyer switches suppliers more often than others.n = 52 awards since 2018
  • 27% of awards went to companies from abroad (52 awards with a known winner country). National average: 9%.n = 52
  • The award came in at a median 70% of the estimated value (8 awards with both estimate and value) — pricing at the estimate is usually too high here. Country: 94%.n = 8
  • The median procedure drew 5 bids (46 procedures with a bid count); 17% ended with a single bidder. Country: median 4.5 bids.n = 46

Foreign bidders

Selection criteria — in the procurement documents

The buyer states in the notice that the selection criteria are in the procurement documents (link on the right), not in the EU form. The document analysis below extracts them from there — bid and evidence in ENG, ENG, ENG.
