No indicative value is published for this competition. Demand is still being collected from the participating institutions, and a figure that later turned out to be wrong would be worse than no figure at all.
Member institutions are never obliged to order against the result. A framework sets the price and the terms; each institution decides for itself whether to use them.
What you will need
These are checked before a bid is evaluated. Documents carry expiry dates and we track them, so a lapsed certificate will hold up a submission that is otherwise complete.
- Registered on ValueHive as a supplier, with vetting approved
- Subscription cleared, since an unpaid seller cannot be issued an order
- KEBS conformity certificate for each product offered
- Evidence of monthly supply capacity by region
- Two comparable supply references from the last 3 years
