Summary of the contracting process

The tender titled "MLEX" has been awarded by the Competition and Markets Authority, focusing on subscription services in the UK. The procurement process adopted a direct approach as a single tender action, following a successful completion stage. The contract, valued at £55,008, is set to commence on 1st April 2018 and will run until 31st March 2021. The procurement was completed on 27th March 2018, which was also the deadline for bid submissions, while the contract will serve various delivery addresses across British Overseas Territories, the Channel Islands, Europe, the Isle of Man, the rest of the world, and the United Kingdom.

This procurement opportunity allows businesses that provide subscription services to leverage their expertise in accessing and managing databases. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) are particularly well-suited to engage in this tender, given the requirements for flexibility and specialised knowledge typically associated with service subscriptions. Participation in such contracts can help these businesses grow by establishing partnerships with public sector organisations and enhancing their visibility in the public procurement landscape.
