*Notice V2* Updated link 25/06/2026 This is a Request for Information and not currently a tendering opportunity. The Authority is seeking to explore Hostile Vehicle Mitigation (HVM) solutions, specifically in the form of Vehicle Security Barriers (VSBs). This includes the potential establishment of a comprehensive through-life support including installations and maintenance contract, anticipated to span approximately 10 years, incorporating provisions for capability upgrades, technology refresh, and asset sustainment. The Authority welcomes input from subject matter experts and relevant suppliers to better understand the level of market interest and capability in delivering a requirement of this nature in the future. This also provides an opportunity for industry to offer feedback, highlight any concerns, and identify potential risks or constraints that may impact delivery.

Comparable-procurement analytics

Benchmarked against retained Find a Tender procedures with CPV division 34. The category anchor is Crash barriers (34928100); 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 343,7333 median · 23.4 average (1,435 of 3,733 with a bid count)3.7 average (1,601 of 3,733 with named award suppliers)Not published
Same buyer36Not publishedNot publishedNot published
Delivery region: UK7964 median · 70.6 average (259 of 796 with a bid count)6.3 average (304 of 796 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.
