Winner shares use published awards; bid and price charts use contested lots.
i
The counts under this question show how many awards have a known supplier size.
Small firms have won here. Neither number says whether you qualify; it describes who has been winning.
i
Local means the winner is registered in the region where that award was delivered. The market figure counts awards delivered in South East England (authority’s region).
Most of this buyer’s recorded winners were registered in the region where that award was delivered.
i
Half of these awards have an award date within 80 days of the bid deadline.

About this data
- Estimates, labelled. The price range, possible competitors and earlier-work matches are our estimates from past awards, not published facts, win chances or price advice. The buyer’s own record and the wider market are shown apart, never mixed.
- Source. Official UK public procurement notices (Find a Tender and Contracts Finder), reused under the Open Government Licence v3.0, updated through the day and rebuilt nightly. Not every figure uses both feeds, and each one shows how many records it rests on: see the methodology. Spotted something wrong? Tell us.

As part of EOI exercise interested suppliers are invited to provide a response describing their arrangements for mobilisation; contract management; dedicated service-team support; operational contacts; deployment management; technical methodology used, system accuracy and validation processes; technical support and maintenance; fault escalation; reporting; regular service reviews; compliance; redeployment planning; and continuous improvement.

The Council will base its assessment and any subsequent procurement decisions on the information received by the stated deadline. Suppliers are responsible for ensuring that their response is submitted in sufficient time to be received before the given deadline.
The Council will review the information received to assess market capability; determine the number of suppliers capable of meeting the requirement; inform the Council’s procurement strategy.
Where the information received demonstrates that only one supplier is capable of meeting the Council’s requirements, the Council reserves the right to consider a direct award, subject to internal governance and procurement obligations.
Where multiple suppliers are identified capable of delivering the requirement, the Council may undertake a competitive procurement process.
The Council reserves the right not to proceed with any procurement following this exercise.
This Expression of Interest is a market engagement exercise only. Participation in this exercise will not create any contractual rights or obligations, nor will it guarantee invitation to any future procurement process or award of any contract.
