CCSN19A07 - Provision of an Integrated Job Evaluation Tool and Market Benchmark data

1.1 Defence Electronics & Components Agency (DECA) (the "Customer") has a need to evaluate approximately 200 jobs. 1.2 To undertake this job evaluation exercise, DECA are seeking to either procure a licence to use an existing commercially available job evaluation product or to commission the design of a bespoke job evaluation scheme which DECA would then have exclusive rights to use. 1.3 In addition to the job evaluation exercise, DECA also wish to undertake a detailed pay and reward market benchmarking exercise against the evaluated jobs and will require access to such relevant market pay and reward data, either under licence or via direct purchase of the data. The pay and reward market data must be compatible with and aligned to the job evaluation data to ensure a viable 'like for like' comparison.

Additional information: How to apply Instructions to Potential Providers:

Potential Providers must first be registered on the Crown Commercial Service e-Sourcing Suite in order to respond to the Procurement. If you have not yet registered on the e-Sourcing Suite, this can be done online at https://gpsesourcing.cabinetoffice.gov.uk by following the link 'Register for CCS e-Sourcing'.

Please note that, to register, you must have a valid DUNS number (as provided by Dun and Bradstreet) for the organisation which you are registering, who will be entering into a contract if invited to do so at the Invitation to Tender stage. Potential Providers should note that it could take up to 10 working days to obtain a DUNS number. Full instructions for registration and use of the system can be found at: http://gps.cabinetoffice.gov.uk/i-am-supplier/respond-tender

Once you have registered on the e-Sourcing Suite, Crown Commercial Service will then process your registration and assign your organisation to the opportunity. The registered user will receive a notification email to alert them once this has been done.

It is advised however that Potential Providers register as soon as practically possible in order to receive the Invitation to Tender and have a sufficient amount of time to respond. Crown Commercial Service is not able to offer any extensions to the advertised procurement timetable.
