What is being bought

Southend-on-Sea City Council is seeking consultancy support to take the Resident Experience and Enabling Services programmes from high-level opportunity identification into a fully developed, validated and investment-ready detailed business case, alongside support for the design and pilot of the integrated call-centre / corporate resolution centre model and linked priority projects. The Council has completed significant discovery and outline design activity, including Activity Analysis and Outline Business Case development. The next phase now requires a delivery partner able to build from this established evidence base, align to the baseline data and assumptions that have informed the case to date, and add value through constructive challenge, particularly on programme design and implementation approach.

Comparable-procurement analytics

Benchmarked against retained Find a Tender procedures with CPV division 73. The category anchor is Research and development services and related consultancy services (73000000); 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 731,0803 median · 32.8 average (227 of 1,080 with a bid count)2.9 average (249 of 1,080 with named award suppliers)Not published
Same buyer0Not publishedNot publishedNot published
Delivery region: UKC391.5 median · 3.1 average (8 of 39 with a bid count)1 average (11 of 39 with named award suppliers)Not published
Similar published value (0.5×–2×)2136 median · 6 average (2 of 213 with a bid count)1 average (2 of 213 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.
