Authority: Historic England (Central government)
What is being bought
Published requirement descriptionThis project will support Historic England to develop guidance for asset owners and managers with different levels of expertise, capacity and resource looking to record and document change to heritage assets at risk from climate-driven impacts and loss.
The project will examine existing resources, case studies and information on different methods for recording, documenting and engaging with environmental and climate-driven change to heritage assets (e.g. through creative or community-led projects). The project will consult with a range of stakeholders and utilise existing Historic England internal user needs information to make recommendations for recording and documenting methods which would be appropriate for owners and managers with different levels of expertise, capacity and resource.

How Historic England buys Environmental management (CPV 9071) — and who usually turns up
Historic England’s own published record, next to the South West England market for the same work. Frameworks and DPS are kept out: they attract a different number of bids. Whole-market view: Environmental management (CPV 9071) →
How the contest usually goes
Left: this authority. Right: the market where the work is delivered. Bids and award-vs-estimate pairs are per lot, from contested contracts only — direct awards (including PA 2023 transparency notices) report one bid by definition and are left out. On Procurement Act 2023 notices the count is the tenders assessed at the final stage, not every submission received; pairs compare like with like (VAT-exclusive, or VAT-inclusive on both sides). Empty means nothing was published, not filled in from elsewhere.

Matched by the nightly worker on class wins, buyer history, delivery geography, scale and notice text; relevance is a 0–100% heuristic score, not a probability of bidding. “Their award vs estimate” is that supplier’s median on its own comparable single-supplier wins, CPV 9071 first. Nobody here is known to be bidding.
Coverage and what to read with care
- Each tile explains itself. The on a figure says what it is, how it is counted and which scope this notice’s own record came from (class, division, all categories, or the authority’s 24-month row). The two columns are never blended and nothing is filled from a UK-wide figure; an empty tile means the source published nothing usable. Long form: Methodology.
- Coverage. Roughly 40 % of notices publish a bid count; about half publish an ITL1 delivery location, so the market column reads the authority’s registered region when the notice has none (labelled). About 30 % of award-vs-estimate pairs are exact matches — the buyer published the award at the estimate. n is on every figure; a thin sample is muted, never hidden.
- “Match” and “relevance” are model scores from the nightly matcher, not published facts. Find a Tender does not publish who is bidding. Never shown: contact details, payment behaviour, or a recommended price.
