What is being bought

This project seeks the delivery of a high-quality residential development that provides safe, sustainable, energy-efficient and low-maintenance homes designed for long-term occupation and management. The completed development must demonstrate excellence in design, construction quality and operational performance, whilst meeting all statutory requirements, planning obligations and Employer standards. Tenderers are expected to provide a fully coordinated design and construction solution that delivers durable building fabric, efficient building services, robust fire and life safety measures, secure and accessible environments, and high standards of resident comfort and wellbeing. The development should be designed to minimise whole-life costs, maximise energy performance and support efficient maintenance and asset management throughout its operational life. The completed homes shall provide attractive, functional and adaptable living environments with excellent thermal performance, acoustic separation, ventilation, daylight, storage and accessibility. Internal and external spaces should be designed to support modern living, promote resident wellbeing and create a positive sense of place. The wider development shall deliver resilient infrastructure, effective drainage, reliable utility services, integrated digital connectivity, sustainable transport measures and high-quality landscaping, creating a safe and attractive environment for residents whilst reducing future maintenance liabilities. Tenderers shall demonstrate how their proposals achieve these outcomes and provide a fully tested, commissioned and compliant development supported by all necessary approvals, certifications, warranties, operational information and training required for successful handover and long-term management.

Comparable-procurement analytics

Benchmarked against retained Find a Tender procedures with CPV division 45. The category anchor is Construction work (45000000); 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 4512,8074 median · 27.2 average (3,777 of 12,807 with a bid count)3.7 average (4,165 of 12,807 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.
