What is being bought

Tamworth Borough Council is inviting tenders for the provision of a twice weekly charter market in Tamworth Town Centre on Tuesdays and Saturdays. The tenderer will lead the operational responsibility for the management and delivery of Tamworth’s Charter Market. In addition to delivering the existing traditional twice weekly market and develop new opportunities for a wider range of products and higher quality goods, the tender will provide supplementary market activity to showcase the recently redeveloped town centre. This should also provide opportunities for new traders, sustainability and innovation and contribute to drive footfall to Tamworth Town Centre and complement existing businesses and attractions.

Comparable-procurement analytics

Benchmarked against retained Find a Tender procedures with CPV division 55. The category anchor is Hotel, restaurant and retail trade services (55000000); this is a deliberately broad market comparator. The comparison is shown at several levels rather than pretending one company or region is always the best benchmark.

Comparison setProceduresReported bids per procedureNamed award suppliersPrice evidence
Market: CPV division 551,0554 median · 10.4 average (318 of 1,055 with a bid count)1.8 average (326 of 1,055 with named award suppliers)Not published

“Reported bids” is an official aggregate, sometimes reported per lot; it is the closest available competition measure. “Named award suppliers” are winners, not all applicants.

Price-outcome signal

Not enough comparable procedures currently publish both a GBP tender value and a usable lowest-valid-bid value to calculate a responsible price-reduction benchmark. Tenderline deliberately does not infer a saving from named award suppliers or from missing award values.
