Comparable-procurement analytics

Benchmarked against retained Find a Tender procedures with CPV division 85. The category anchor is Optician services (85160000); 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 8511,2841 median · 42.1 average (4,704 of 11,284 with a bid count)2.1 average (5,377 of 11,284 with named award suppliers)10 comparable price pairs
Same buyer51 median · 1.5 average (4 of 5 with a bid count)1 average (4 of 5 with named award suppliers)Not published
Similar published value (0.5×–2×)4041 median · 2.4 average (28 of 404 with a bid count)1 average (32 of 404 with named award suppliers)3 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.

Indicative price outcome

£117,555 is the median lowest-valid-bid benchmark for the broad CPV market sample, against this procedure’s published value of £180,688.

This is a historical comparator, not a bid-price forecast or a guaranteed saving. It excludes records where the published values cannot be sensibly compared and does not adjust for lot structure, quality weighting, framework terms or scope.
