Benchmarked against retained Find a Tender procedures with CPV division 85. The category anchor is Welfare services for children and young people (85311300); 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 | 11,633 | 1 median · 41.3 average (4,878 of 11,633 with a bid count) | 2.2 average (5,577 of 11,633 with named award suppliers) | 10 comparable price pairs |
| Same buyer | 5 | 2.5 median · 2.5 average (2 of 5 with a bid count) | 2 average (2 of 5 with named award suppliers) | Not published |
| Delivery region: UKG33 | 22 | 4.5 median · 19.6 average (8 of 22 with a bid count) | 7 average (9 of 22 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.
No planning milestones published.
No linked framework, prior procurement or reprocurement published.
No documents are published in the current source record.
