Comparable-procurement analytics

Benchmarked against retained Find a Tender procedures with CPV division 31. The category anchor is Electrical supplies and accessories (31680000); 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 317975.5 median · 93.5 average (140 of 797 with a bid count)6.3 average (164 of 797 with named award suppliers)Not published
Same buyer0Not publishedNot publishedNot published
Delivery region: UKC541 median · 14.5 average (6 of 54 with a bid count)1.6 average (8 of 54 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.

Note that there is a separate form for Suppliers and Buyers. \nRegistering an interest does not equal a commitment to tender for the opportunity, and participation in any engagement activity will not confer any advantage in the subsequent tender process.\nDue to the anticipated level of interest, Cirrus Purchasing reserves the right to limit the number of participants in individual engagement activities. Registering an interest does not guarantee an invitation to a specific session.\nFurther details of each activity, including dates, format and joining instructions, will be provided to registered participants in due course.\nSUPPLIERS\nWe plan to engage with suppliers via:\n- At least one webinar for suppliers covering the basics of the framework, how to bid on the opportunity and how the tender and evaluation process works. This session is anticipated to take place in late July/August 2026\n- One-to-one conversations with suppliers to understand their offer, particularly around managed stores and managed services\nRegister your interest in supplier market engagement here: https://forms.gle/mJsZiugbJov3s7367 \nBUYERS\nWe plan to engage with buyers via:\n- Virtual buyer sessions for contracting authorities and existing Consortium members to feed into the framework design\n- An in-person regional session for contracting authorities to provide input - date to be confirmed\nRegister your interest in buyer market engagement here: https://forms.gle/3ysrw7EoZp3am4x68"
