Comparable-procurement analytics

Benchmarked against retained Find a Tender procedures with CPV division 31. The category anchor is Fire-alarm systems (31625200); 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 317935 median · 95.6 average (136 of 793 with a bid count)6.4 average (160 of 793 with named award suppliers)Not published

Delivery region: UK19238 median · 405.8 average (29 of 192 with a bid count)19.5 average (35 of 192 with named award suppliers)Not published
Similar published value (0.5×–2×)502.5 median · 2.5 average (2 of 50 with a bid count)1 average (2 of 50 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.
