| 1 | Machinery for the production and use of mechanical power, Miscellaneous general and special-purpose machinery | Not published |
Benchmarked against retained Find a Tender procedures with CPV division 42. The category anchor is Machinery for the production and use of mechanical power (42100000); 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 set | Procedures | Reported bids per procedure | Named award suppliers | Price evidence |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Market: CPV division 42 | 1,474 | 4 median · 56.7 average (465 of 1,474 with a bid count) | 6 average (497 of 1,474 with named award suppliers) | Not published |
| Same buyer | 7 | 1 median · 1 average (1 of 7 with a bid count) | 1 average (1 of 7 with named award suppliers) | Not published |
| Delivery region: UK | 369 | 17 median · 210.6 average (99 of 369 with a bid count) | 15.5 average (104 of 369 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.
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.
