Comparable-procurement analytics

Benchmarked against retained Find a Tender procedures with CPV division 79. The category anchor is Legal services (79100000); 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 795,1493 median · 32.2 average (1,568 of 5,149 with a bid count)2.9 average (1,757 of 5,149 with named award suppliers)Not published
Same buyer2Not publishedNot publishedNot published
Delivery region: UK1,4544 median · 57.4 average (432 of 1,454 with a bid count)4.7 average (510 of 1,454 with named award suppliers)Not published
Similar published value (0.5×–2×)4244 median · 10.9 average (7 of 424 with a bid count)2.7 average (7 of 424 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.
