| 1 | Vehicle bodies, Rolling stock, Repair, maintenance and associated services related to railways and other equipment, Railway transport services | Not published |
Benchmarked against retained Find a Tender procedures with CPV division 34. The category anchor is Vehicle bodies (34210000); 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 set | Procedures | Reported bids per procedure | Named award suppliers | Price evidence |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Market: CPV division 34 | 2,164 | 3 median · 23.2 average (684 of 2,164 with a bid count) | 3.6 average (750 of 2,164 with named award suppliers) | Not published |
| Same buyer | 12 | 6 median · 6 average (1 of 12 with a bid count) | 1 average (1 of 12 with named award suppliers) | Not published |
| Delivery region: UKI | 137 | 3 median · 14 average (35 of 137 with a bid count) | 2.7 average (39 of 137 with named award suppliers) | Not published |
| Similar published value (0.5×–2×) | 164 | 24 median · 21.7 average (3 of 164 with a bid count) | 5 average (3 of 164 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.
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.
| Milestone | Type | Due | Status |
