What is being bought

City of Wolverhampton Council is exploring the adoption of devolved DVLA Vehicle Excise Duty (VED) enforcement powers, enabling it to directly identify, immobilise, remove, and manage untaxed vehicles using ANPR and DVLA data, and is conducting a Preliminary Market Engagement to assess supplier capability to deliver a fully outsourced end‑to‑end enforcement service-including call handling, vehicle lifting, impounding, and customer fee processing-in order to reduce crime and anti‑social behaviour, improve public safety, and recover public revenue lost through VED evasion.

Comparable-procurement analytics

Benchmarked against retained Find a Tender procedures with CPV division 50. The category anchor is Repair and maintenance services (50000000); 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 504,9944 median · 19.9 average (1,696 of 4,994 with a bid count)3.3 average (1,897 of 4,994 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.
