The submission route named on the official notice.
This is a large award for Business Services — above three-quarters of comparable contracts. Based on 57,319 valued Business Services tenders in our corpus.
Crown Commercial Service publishes Business Services work continuously — 787 notices, roughly one every 1 day. This is a stream to watch, not a cycle to wait for.
68% of Crown Commercial Service’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 →
