Comparable-procurement analytics

Benchmarked against retained Find a Tender procedures with CPV division 45. The category anchor is Construction, foundation and surface works for highways, roads (45233000); 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 4517,1274 median · 30.2 average (5,652 of 17,127 with a bid count)3.8 average (6,245 of 17,127 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.

You are required to complete the Questionnaire hosted on Procontract populating all cells in white. Please keep all responses to a maximum of 1 page, and do not provide supplementary brochures / marketing material. \nOnce completed, you should submit the response via the messaging facility on Procontract: https://procontract.due-north.com or by email: George.Mellish@southwark.gov.uk, no later than 5pm on 31 October 2025.\nPlease be advised that the Council may invite suppliers to attend a follow-up one-to-one discussion, most likely to be conducted in mid-November. Due to Council capacity and the anticipated number of responses, it may not be possible to hold discussions with all suppliers. The Council will therefore seek to hold discussions with suppliers who have provided the most informative responses and with whom there is most need for further clarity/detail. Southwark Council will contact shortlisted suppliers via the contact details provided below. \nThis notice does not constitute a call for competition to procure any services for the Council, and the Council is not bound to accept any proposals offered. The Council is not liable for any costs, fees or expenses incurred by any party participating in this soft market testing/sounding exercise. Any procurement of any services by the Council in due course will be carried out strictly in accordance with the provisions of The Procurement Act 2023."
