What is being bought

Published requirement description

Maintenance and repair of most vehicles is undertaken within the Council through dedicated managed workshops operated by Fleet Services and CEGS. The requirement for this contract is to support this operation through the replacement of vehicle hoses. Whilst the contract is primarily for hydraulic hoses and pipes, the Contractor could be called on to replace pipes on differing applications carrying different fluids. This includes, but is not limited to, power steering fluid, engine oil, gearbox oil, and air pipes. This work may be required at the roadside, or at any depot operated by Leeds City Council. The Contractor may request details of depots operated by Leeds City Council at any stage.

Occasionally, the Contract may be required to work on vehicle not belonging to Leeds City Council. This includes vehicles used by schools, universities and hire companies.

  • The authority expects to re-tender this requirement around 30 Oct 2031, 23:59 GMT.

How Leeds City Council buys Pumps and compressors (CPV 4212) — and who usually turns up

Leeds City Council’s own published record, next to the Yorkshire and the Humber market for the same work. Frameworks and DPS are kept out: they attract a different number of bids. Whole-market view: Pumps and compressors (CPV 4212) →

How the contest usually goes

Left: this authority. Right: the market where the work is delivered. Bids and award-vs-estimate pairs are per lot, from contested contracts only — direct awards (including PA 2023 transparency notices) report one bid by definition and are left out. On Procurement Act 2023 notices the count is the tenders assessed at the final stage, not every submission received; pairs compare like with like (VAT-exclusive, or VAT-inclusive on both sides). Empty means nothing was published, not filled in from elsewhere.

i

Where this tender’s estimate would land if the usual pattern repeats.

We apply the buyer’s usual movement between estimate and award (or the region’s) to the estimate on this notice.

Based on 3 lots, so only the direction is shown, not a pound figure.

A benchmark, not a price to bid.

The middle award in Leeds City Council (division 42, n=3 pairs) lands at estimate. Too few pairs to turn into a pound figure with any confidence — read the percentage as a rough direction, not this notice’s estimate converted.
Coverage and what to read with care
  • Each tile explains itself. The on a figure says what it is, how it is counted and which scope this notice’s own record came from (class, division, all categories, or the authority’s 24-month row). The two columns are never blended and nothing is filled from a UK-wide figure; an empty tile means the source published nothing usable. Long form: Methodology.
  • Coverage. Roughly 40 % of notices publish a bid count; about half publish an ITL1 delivery location, so the market column reads the authority’s registered region when the notice has none (labelled). About 30 % of award-vs-estimate pairs are exact matches — the buyer published the award at the estimate. n is on every figure; a thin sample is muted, never hidden.
  • “Match” and “relevance” are model scores from the nightly matcher, not published facts. Find a Tender does not publish who is bidding. Never shown: contact details, payment behaviour, or a recommended price.
