When this comes round again

Pension Protection Fund publishes Business Services work continuously — 57 notices, roughly one every 21 days. This is a stream to watch, not a cycle to wait for.

21% of Pension Protection Fund’s awards go to a supplier it has used before.

Which is the argument for getting on the list rather than winning this one. The incumbent is rarely the last winner — it is the roster. See the retention odds by category →

Lot 3 Services (Real Estate) - maximum 3 bidders will be appointed to this lot.
