Comparable-procurement analytics

Benchmarked against retained Find a Tender procedures with CPV division 90. The category anchor is Radiation protection services (90721600); 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 902,1174 median · 24.4 average (518 of 2,117 with a bid count)3.1 average (555 of 2,117 with named award suppliers)Not published
Same buyer0Not publishedNot publishedNot published
Similar published value (0.5×–2×)2395 median · 6.9 average (14 of 239 with a bid count)1.8 average (14 of 239 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.

        "description": "Northern Medical Physics & Clinical Engineering (NMPCE) is a clinical directorate of The Newcastle Upon Tyne Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust (NUTH) and provides radiation safety services, including personal radiation monitoring services, to a range of NHS and private customers throughout Northern England.\nNMPCE is intending to conduct a tender to contract for the provision of Approved Dosimetry Service (ADS) for both Assessment of External Dose and Co-ordination & Record-Keeping services. \nDosimetry requirements include body, collar, lens, ring and finger stall allocations plus area monitoring. Issue periods ranging from 1 to 3 months. All dosimeters must be suitable for standard healthcare applications and be able to withstand cold sterilisation processes.\nAccess to dose data via an online portal is required for both NMPCE and client representatives. Nominated NMPCE staff will require access to all data while all others may only access relevant data.  \nTo ensure results are accurate and not exposed to any further radiation within the transportation process, the dosimetry services provider must demonstrate that dosimeters will be shipped to, and from, a UK based location."
