BiP SOLUTIONS is celebrating after another group of key
public sector clients signed up to receive the Delta bundle
package – streamlining procurement through BiP’s
complete Delta e-tendering service.
The Delta bundle package provides e-tendering tools to facilitate
mission-critical
tendering processes and is used for handling the full life
cycle of the tendering process – from initial notification
of requirements, through Expressions of Interest (EOIs) and
the issuing of Invitations to Tender (ITTs), to receiving
and evaluating the final tenders, including optional reverse
auctions.
Recent sign-ups to the full service include the National
Audit Office, Hertfordshire County Council, South Lanarkshire
Council, Scottish Police Services Authority, Strathclyde
Fire and Rescue, Telford and Wrekin Council, and Guy’s
and St Thomas' NHS Trust.
BiP’s Delta bundle includes the e-notice service Project,
which is not only an official eSender to the Official Journal
of the European Union (OJEU) but also a key interoperability
partner of the Enterprise Directorate’s Supply2.gov.uk portal, for which BiP is the service provider.
Recent European Court of Justice cases have highlighted how
important it is for public bodies to appropriately advertise
their lower-value contract opportunities. By utilising the
Competitive Contract Notice (CCN) form within Project, organisations
will not only be fully compliant with the European Commission’s
lower-value advertising requirements but also be supporting
small businesses through the
Supply2.gov.uk initiative.

or any of BiP’s other services, contact the Public
