Comparable-procurement analytics
Benchmarked against retained Find a Tender procedures with CPV division 85. The category anchor is Community health services (85323000); 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 85 | 11,370 | 1 median · 41.7 average (4,754 of 11,370 with a bid count) | 2.2 average (5,436 of 11,370 with named award suppliers) | 10 comparable price pairs |
| Same buyer | 4 | Not published | Not published | 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.

This plays a vital part in the reduction of child health inequalities through a holistic approach to identifying and addressing the health needs of children.\nConflicts of interest were managed throughout the process and none were declared. The evaluation panel independently reviewed the information provided against each of the 5 Key Criteria. The planned evaluation panel consisted of Billie Hamilton-Moss (Specialist), Chloe Nelson (Senior Commissioner) and Wendy Jeffreys (Public Health Consultant). Matthew Wellard (Commercial and Procurement Manager) moderated the process. Dr Anjan Ghosh approved the intent to award. In assessment of a considerable change, it was established that the contracts are not materially different in nature, nor will there be an increase in contract value of more than 25% and £500k of the original contract values. This process robustly assessed the contract performance and future contract performance across ALL of the 5 key criteria, namely: •Quality and innovation (30%) •Value (30%) •Integration, collaboration and service sustainability (15%) •Improving access, reducing health inequalities, and facilitating choice (15%) •Social value (10%)",
