What is being bought

This Framework is for the Provision of Printing and Mailing Services on behalf of the Council's internal Design & Print Services and Mailing Teams. Due to internal capacity, the Printing and Mailing capabilities of both the Council's Design & Print and Mailing Teams are limited and therefore, the Council intend to establish a Framework of a maximum of four (4) Suppliers to fulfil this requirement.

Comparable-procurement analytics

Benchmarked against retained Find a Tender procedures with CPV division 79. The category anchor is Printing and related services (79800000); 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 7912,7624 median · 30.3 average (5,342 of 12,762 with a bid count)3.1 average (5,968 of 12,762 with named award suppliers)1 comparable price pairs

“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.
