The UK procurement market

The shape of a UK bid, in four numbers

Public procurement here is not short of opportunity. The pressure sits in the middle of the lifecycle: the qualification threshold, the written answers, and the duties that begin the moment a contract is awarded.

Notice volumes: Contracts Finder and Find a Tender. Supplier figures: published UK supplier surveys reported by CIPS Supply Management and techUK. Threshold: Procurement Act 2023, section 52, advisory and not legal advice. These figures describe the UK procurement market, not this product’s performance.

One engine, end to end

The whole lifecycle, not the easy half

Discovery, qualification, drafting and post-award evidencing in one system, built on the Procurement Act 2023 and the National TOMs rather than bolted onto them.

Discover

Every UK tender, the day it lands

Around 40,000 notices a year from Contracts Finder and Find a Tender, read at source across central government, NHS trusts and local authorities, and scored against your own delivery record.

Explore discovery

Tender fit scoring

Tell it what you bid for once, and every notice arrives already scored against your profile, so you spend the day on the ones that match.

Answer

Grounded answers, traceable line by line

Drafts against the tender's own published criteria, grounded in your approved answer library and the statute behind the contract. Your team edits and approves; the engine does the load-bearing work.

Explore drafting

Grounding disclosure on every answer

Every pound and percentage comes from a commitment you recorded, never invented, and a named human reviews and approves before you submit.

Social value

PPN 002 social value, priced and defensible

National TOMs measures mapped and monetised against published proxy values. The part of the bid most suppliers dread becomes a number an evaluator can audit and you can defend.

Explore social value

Both sides of the table

Authorities build the requirement with the same measures suppliers answer against, so the rubric and the response speak the same language.

Deliver

The contract does not end at award

Commitments carried into delivery, evidence gathered against them, and the reports an authority expects years later. This is the ground every other bid tool has already ceded.

Explore delivery

Section 52 duties, surfaced early

Above the £5m threshold the Procurement Act 2023 sets minimum KPIs, so what was promised has to be tracked and reported. Advisory, not legal advice.

Both sides of the table

Supplier and authority, one rulebook

The supplier answering and the authority evaluating work from the same rulebook and the same measures, so a commitment means the same thing whichever chair you are sitting in.

One CrowAgent engine, shared by both sides The CrowAgent mark at the centre of two slowly turning arcs, one for the supplier answering and one for the authority evaluating.

Answer the question, once

Live tenders from Contracts Finder and Find a Tender, selection questionnaires answered from your own approved library, and PPN 002 social value priced at the published proxy values.

Find the evidence across every response

Publish a requirement with a deterministic social value rubric, then have every response searched for the evidence behind each measure. Quotes are located word for word, or dropped, never invented.

Run the real engine

Watch it reason, and watch it hold the gate

Generic AI writes a confident paragraph. Procurement asks where the number came from. This is the sequence the answer engine runs on one live award question. Retrieve, ground, compute, check, cite. Every figure has to land on a commitment somebody recorded, and a named person still signs it off.

CrowMark · answer engine · ITT ref CF-2026-0417
Award question 4.2 · social value · 10% of the award score

Describe the social value your delivery will create in the borough, with quantified benefits attributable to this contract.

  1. Retrieve

    Three sources are in scope, and there is never a fourth.

    • The rules · PPN 002 and the published ITT
    • This tender · question 4.2, weighted at 10%
    • Your library · 2 previously approved answers

  2. Ground

    Each candidate figure is looked up against what you actually committed to, not assumed.

    • T1M1 · 4 new jobs, borough postcodes, 12 months
    • T1M2 · proxy £27,000 per job per year
    • T1M3 · quarterly reporting to the authority
    • Local supply chain spend · no recorded commitment

  3. Compute

    The arithmetic runs in code. The model never produces the number.

    4 jobs × £27,000 per job per year = £108,000

  4. Check

    Every figure is walked back to the commitment it rests on. One of the four has nothing behind it.

    • Traced to 3 recorded commitments
    • 1 figure untraced · local supply chain spend

  5. Cite

    Citations attach to the figures themselves, so a reviewer can open any one of them.

Approval locked

1 figure untraced. The claim comes out, or a named approver records the commitment behind it. The engine cannot clear its own gate.

Approval open

Every figure left in the draft traces to a recorded commitment. It goes to a named approver to sign off. A person approves, not the model.

Worked example on one award question. Proxy values are the National TOMs 2023-24 constants the product prints on its own methodology screen. Weighting follows PPN 002, published 13 February 2025 and mandatory from 1 October 2025. Advisory, not legal advice.
