Illustrative example

318 registered suppliers have never been awarded anything.

The portal holds 340 registered suppliers. Over the last 24 months, 22 of them have been awarded work. Registration events run on schedule and the pipeline of new registrations is healthy, so the pool keeps growing and the awarded list does not move. Nobody can say precisely why, because the pool has never been measured against the standard it is being judged by.

Every dot is one registered supplier

  • Awarded work in 24 months22
  • Never awarded anything318

The pool has 340 suppliers in it. Twenty two of them are the pool. Every sourcing cycle draws from the same lit dots, and every registration event adds to the dark ones.

What the institution sees

A large registered pool and a small awarded list, with nothing connecting them.

What the system does

Nothing yet. Registration data says who signed up, not who could pass.

What they can report

Registration counts and event attendance. Neither predicts an award.
