Buyer: Blackpool Borough Council →
Blackpool Council ('the Council') intends to undertake preliminary market engagement ('PME') to consult suppliers in relation to a development opportunity known as Central Housing Regeneration Area project, Blackpool. The Council has been awarded Homes England Grant Funding to deliver a transformational, housing-led regeneration scheme and will be seeking to appoint a Development Partner who will support the Council in developing and delivering the detailed scheme proposals. The Council vision is to create a high quality residential-led neighbourhood in this priority location that will have the desired transformative impact and kickstart the regeneration of Blackpool Central. The Council's objectives for PME are to help: • Develop its requirements; • Alert the market of the upcoming opportunity and provide an indication of the likely role and responsibilities of the Development Partner(s); • Develop its approach to the procurement and the tender documents; • Identify suppliers that may be able to deliver the scheme and understand capacity in the market; • Gauge the level of market interest; and • Elicit feedback on the Council's key objectives, the proposed specification, delivery structure, procurement process and programme to assist the Council in refining its approach to each aspect. A PME Brief and PME Questionnaire have been produced which include further background to the development opportunity including proposed Project Objectives to ensure that the vision and aspirations for the site are achieved as well as high level Development Partner responsibilities. The Council reserves the right to amend any of the information contained within any of the PME documents prior to commencement of the procurement process and publication of the Tender Notice.

Benchmarked against retained Find a Tender procedures with CPV division 45. The category anchor is Demolition, site preparation and clearance work (45111000); 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 45 | 10,145 | 4 median · 26.2 average (2,570 of 10,145 with a bid count) | 3.8 average (2,840 of 10,145 with named award suppliers) | Not published |
| Same buyer | 6 | Not published | Not published | Not published |
| Delivery region: UKD42 | 18 | 4 median · 6.1 average (12 of 18 with a bid count) | 1.6 average (12 of 18 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.
