On-catalogue competition

Benefits

Users will have access to a streamlined, digitised process that allows them to carry out an on-catalogue procurement in full online. It will also provide an audit trail to demonstrate why a particular solution or service was procured.

User feedback

Users highlighted some key needs that the on-catalogue competition should address, such as being able to access all the rationale for each decision made, being able to compare non-price elements (for example, features, implementation, interoperability and service levels) and being able to score solutions collaboratively as a team.

They also highlighted the need for more detailed and comparable information about solutions to make scoring a fair and accurate process.
