Comparable-procurement analytics

Benchmarked against retained Find a Tender procedures with CPV division 85. The category anchor is Pathology services (85111800); 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 8528,9601 median · 23.4 average (16,166 of 28,960 with a bid count)1.8 average (17,495 of 28,960 with named award suppliers)10 comparable price pairs
Same buyer411 median · 1 average (12 of 41 with a bid count)1 average (12 of 41 with named award suppliers)Not published
Delivery region: UKE411131 median · 79.7 average (60 of 113 with a bid count)2.3 average (65 of 113 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": "This is a Provider Selection Regime (PSR) intention to award notice. The awarding of this contract is subject to the Health Care Services (Provider Selection Regime) Regulations 2023. For the avoidance of doubt, the provisions of the Public Contracts Regulations 2015 do not apply to this award. The standstill period begins on the day after the publication of this notice. Representations by providers must be made to decision makers by 09/03/2026. This contract has not yet formally been awarded; this notice serves as an intention to award under the PSR.’<br/><br/>Award decision-makers;<br/>Afruj Ruf<br/>Lucy Jenkinson<br/><br/>Based on the Authorities assessment and PSR decision making process (taking into account key criteria; quality, value, integration, inequalities and access), ILS LLP intends to award a contract to an existing provider following Direct Award Process C under the Provider Selection Regime (PSR).<br/><br/>The authority is proposing a new contract to replace the existing contract at the end of its term and the proposed contracting arrangements are not changing considerably.<br/><br/>ILS LLP is of the view that the existing provider is satisfying the contract to a sufficient standard and will likely satisfy the proposed contract to a sufficient standard.<br/><br/>Direct Award Processes A (only one provider can provide the services) and B (unrestricted patient choice) do not apply and a competitive process is unlikely to add value for patients, taxpayers, or the population.<br/><br/><br/>The publication of this notice marks the start of the standstill period. Representations by providers must be made to decision makers by midnight on 09/03/2026 (8 working days from publication) via email to: Xander.mcconville@nhs.net<br/><br/>This contract has not yet formally been awarded; this notice serves as an intention to award under the PSR. The contract will not be awarded until the period has ended and any representations have been considered.<br/><br/>No conflicts of interest were identified during the procurement process.<br/><br/>No subcontracting is expected.",
