Summary of the contracting process

The Competition and Markets Authority has completed a procurement process titled "Subscription to PaRR Database," classified under research services (CPV code 73110000). This direct tender action was initiated to provide regulatory and policy data, with a total contract value of £17,000. The tender was awarded on 19 March 2018 and the contract runs from 13 April 2018 until 12 April 2020. The completion of this procurement indicates a successful transition to contract execution, providing a clear timeframe for business engagement.

This tender represents a valuable opportunity for companies specializing in regulatory and policy data services to expand their market presence, particularly those capable of delivering comprehensive subscription services. Larger players with established databases or analysis tools, like Mergemarket Ltd. (T/a PaRR Global), would likely compete effectively. However, businesses of varying sizes may find collaborative opportunities or niches within the wider research service framework to enhance their own growth strategies.
