What is being bought

Liverpool City Council are looking to soft test the market for suppliers who provide vehicle removal services within the Liverpool city boundary under abandoned vehicle and untaxed vehicle legislation. Organisations who are able to support the Council's statutory duty in responding to Abandoned Vehicles and who also have the technical ability to locate and remove Untaxed Vehicles are invited to respond. All consideration must be given to ensure that operations comply with the appropriate legislation including the storage, dismantling, cleansing and disposal of vehicles and that appropriate payment systems are in place. The Council is seeking to achieve at least a nil cost contract with the approved supplier over a period of three-years with options to extend for up to a further two-years

Comparable-procurement analytics

Benchmarked against retained Find a Tender procedures with CPV division 50. The category anchor is Vehicle towing-away services (50118110); 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 506,0594 median · 21.1 average (2,233 of 6,059 with a bid count)3.5 average (2,508 of 6,059 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.
