What is being bought

Cleveland Fire Brigade (CFB) are looking for a supplier (or suppliers) who are able to undertake accident damage repair, for a range of both HGV's and Light Vehicles. The extent of accident damage can not be clarified until each accident takes place, however, we would be looking for a supplier who is able to repair both bodywork and mechanical issues when required. CFB have a range of front line operational and non-operational vehicles. Due to the nature of our work, CFB are wanting to have our vehicles repaired to both a high standard and within the fastest time possible. CFB are not expecting suppliers to undertake our work immediately, however, once a date and timeframe is agreed, we expect suppliers to be able to honor this (with the exception of exceptional circumstances). CFB's vehicle stock is of high value, and needs to be treat / stored in a way which maintains the security at all times. Suppliers are required to ensure security of our vehicles (both HGV and Light Vehicles) at all times when under the control of the supplier. CFB insist that genuine parts are used on all front line operational vehicles, after market parts will be considered for all non-operational vehicles.

Comparable-procurement analytics

Benchmarked against retained Find a Tender procedures with CPV division 50. The category anchor is Repair, maintenance and associated services of vehicles and related equipment (50100000); 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 502,9563 median · 24.7 average (708 of 2,956 with a bid count)3.4 average (795 of 2,956 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.
