Benchmarked against retained Find a Tender procedures with CPV division 85. The category anchor is Social services (85320000); 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 | 17,978 | 1 median · 30.8 average (8,438 of 17,978 with a bid count) | 2 average (9,399 of 17,978 with named award suppliers) | 10 comparable price pairs |
| Same buyer | 5 | Not published | Not published | Not published |
| Delivery region: UKH32 | 15 | 6 median · 11 average (7 of 15 with a bid count) | 1.9 average (8 of 15 with named award suppliers) | Not published |
| Similar published value (0.5×–2×) | 405 | 3.5 median · 442.7 average (10 of 405 with a bid count) | 7.5 average (10 of 405 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.
£13,504,006 is the median lowest-valid-bid benchmark for the broad CPV market sample, against this procedure’s published value of £20,756,250.
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.
No planning milestones published.
No linked framework, prior procurement or reprocurement published.

"description": "Thurrock Council is seeking to engage with the market regarding a potential contract for domiciliary care and wellbeing services in Locality 2 (Aveley, South Ockendon and Purfleet).\nWe are seeking partners who can help us to meet the needs of people who are eligible for support under the Care Act 2014. This support is to enable them to live independently within their own home and may include traditional models of care such as Domiciliary Care. However, we are also keen to explore how the delivery model may change throughout the contract including in response to testing different ideas that either yourself as a Partner and/or those that use your service have. \nAs such, the Council is hosting a virtual market engagement event on 28th April 2026 to discuss this opportunity further.",
