Comparable-procurement analytics

Benchmarked against retained Find a Tender procedures with CPV division 71. The category anchor is Construction management services (71540000); 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 713,3343 median · 31.6 average (833 of 3,334 with a bid count)3.6 average (928 of 3,334 with named award suppliers)Not published
Same buyer32 median · 2 average (2 of 3 with a bid count)1 average (2 of 3 with named award suppliers)Not published
Delivery region: UK7312 median · 87 average (167 of 731 with a bid count)6.1 average (206 of 731 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.

The DP will be procured using the Competitive Flexible Procedure outlined in the Procurement Act 2023 (the Act). The purpose of this PME Notice is to provide information to the market on the activities GBE-N is planning to carry out in connection with its intention to procure up a Delivery Partner (DP). The Act permits contracting authorities to publish an PME Notice to notify potential suppliers that PME activity is coming up and for supplier to register their interest in attending the event once a signed NDA has been completed. \nThe total contract value will be between £750million and £1billion as stated in this PME Notice and assumes that GBE-N will award one DP contract for the SMR programme. GBE-N reserves the right to make amendments prior to the official tender dates and process begins. And will be reviewing all feedback on its approach to procuring one SMR Programme Delivery Partner.\nAn agenda for the day will be provided along with this notice and a signed NDA must be returned by 11th September 2025 in order for interested suppliers to receive further information on the PME event and to attend and participate in the event itself. As this PME event and the procurement exercise is being run at pace, suppliers are requested not to ask to negotiate the terms of the NDA, in order to avoid delays to the process. Please note that if a signed NDA is not provided by 11th September 2025, it will not be possible for suppliers to participate in the PME event or receive the PME materials.\nPlease note that our PME event venue has a maximum capacity of 150 people. For this reason, suppliers will only be permitted to bring up to two attendees from their company. Your request to attend the PME event and the signed NDA must be received by 11th September 2025. In addition, the names of the attendees must be notified to commercialcdp@greatbritishnuclear.uk by 11th September 2025 in order for your attendees' places to be confirmed."

    "description": "GBN's current strategic planning is that it requires a delivery partner to provide delivery and technical integration to the SMR project(s), including all sub-projects. \nThe Delivery Partner will provide project delivery capability, co-ordination, interface management, management of project baselines (including change control) throughout the project delivery lifecycle, and foster collaboration, continuous improvement and innovation across the project and supply chain. The DP(s) will manage contracts on behalf of the DevCo Client(s), overseeing delivery, construction, supply chain, and risk, and play a key role in alliance arrangements (i.e. collaboration arrangements to ensure cohesive delivery across multiple complex contracts). The detailed scope of the DP is still being finalised and will be subject to final approvals. It is not anticipated there will be any substantial change to the description set out in this pipeline.",
