The comparison is shown at several levels rather than pretending one company or region is always the best benchmark.

|---|---|---|---|---|
| Market: CPV division 85 | 17,076 | 1 median · 31.6 average (8,048 of 17,076 with a bid count) | 2 average (8,983 of 17,076 with named award suppliers) | 10 comparable price pairs |

£2,170,400 is the median lowest-valid-bid benchmark for the broad CPV market sample, against this procedure’s published value of £3,336,000.
This is a historical comparator, not a bid-price forecast or a guaranteed saving. It excludes records where the published values cannot be sensibly compared and does not adjust for lot structure, quality weighting, framework terms or scope.
