Comparable-procurement analytics

Benchmarked against retained Find a Tender procedures with CPV division 79. The category anchor is Employee relocation services (79613000); 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

“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.

    "description": "The Ministry of Defence (MoD) has contracted for specialists in relocation services to support MoD civilians eligible for transfer allowances since 1992 and would like to notify the market of a potential upcoming procurement for its future relocation services. Prior to launching a procurement, the MoD is keen to engage and understand the current capability and capacity of the market relating to end to end employee relocation services through an initial request for information followed by a more formal market engagement process as detailed in the engagement process description. This engagement will inform a procurement, the details of which are still to be determined.\nMoD civilian employee relocation provision is the supporting services offered through a specialised relocation company contract. The current requirements encompass two schemes; a Relocation Introductory Scheme (RIS) and a Relocation Company Scheme (RCS) which provide services to the MoD and to staff authorised by the MoD to participate in such Schemes. The requirements cover services for moves of home (e.g. Home Sale, legal services, removals, estate agents, marketing of properties, partner career support etc.) and temporary transfers (provision of introductory rental services).\nThe current contract expires at the end of November 2026.\nThe services currently offer a Guaranteed Sale Price for the old home, protection against market losses, and help with buying the new home. The relocation contract also offered support with ancillary services such as valuers, solicitors, removals, estate agents, surveyors, and partner career assistance.\nThe current contract is open to Other Government Departments (OGDs) and Agencies (40+ have access to the contract). For OGDs and/or Agencies there is a bespoke contract annex which provides for any variances in the requirement and pricing specific to that OGD or Agency.\nThe MoD is the main user and party to the contract, and it will be MoD Commercial who will contract for future relocation services in line with the MoD relocation policy.\nFor the avoidance of doubt, this notice is not a call for competition. Any comments, indications of interest, participation, or non-participation by any organisation at this stage will not influence the process, selection and/or award decision for any future potential procurement, nor will it be taken as a supplier's committed position. Non-participation will not exclude you from any possible future competition for this requirement.",

    "description": "The Ministry of Defence (MoD) has contracted for specialists in relocation services to support MoD civilians eligible for transfer allowances since 1992 and would like to notify the market of a potential upcoming procurement for its future relocation services. Prior to launching a procurement, the MoD is keen to engage and understand the current capability and capacity of the market relating to end to end employee relocation services through an initial request for information followed by a more formal market engagement process as detailed in the engagement process description. This engagement will inform a procurement, the details of which are still to be determined.\nMoD civilian employee relocation provision is the supporting services offered through a specialised relocation company contract. The current requirements encompass two schemes; a Relocation Introductory Scheme (RIS) and a Relocation Company Scheme (RCS) which provide services to the MoD and to staff authorised by the MoD to participate in such Schemes. The requirements cover services for moves of home (e.g. Home Sale, legal services, removals, estate agents, marketing of properties, partner career support etc.) and temporary transfers (provision of introductory rental services).\nThe current contract expires at the end of November 2026.\nThe services currently offer a Guaranteed Sale Price for the old home, protection against market losses, and help with buying the new home. The relocation contract also offered support with ancillary services such as valuers, solicitors, removals, estate agents, surveyors, and partner career assistance.\nThe current contract is open to Other Government Departments (OGDs) and Agencies (40+ have access to the contract). For OGDs and/or Agencies there is a bespoke contract annex which provides for any variances in the requirement and pricing specific to that OGD or Agency.\nThe MoD is the main user and party to the contract, and it will be MoD Commercial who will contract for future relocation services in line with the MoD relocation policy.\nFor the avoidance of doubt, this notice is not a call for competition. Any comments, indications of interest, participation, or non-participation by any organisation at this stage will not influence the process, selection and/or award decision for any future potential procurement, nor will it be taken as a supplier's committed position. Non-participation will not exclude you from any possible future competition for this requirement.",
