What is being bought

The purpose of this market engagement exercise is to gain information about the current market as a whole, the position of relevant suppliers within it and also any potential barriers that may prevent participation. We will use this information to inform the writing of the tender in such a way to ensure maximum competition and ultimately a robust, best value contract. The Authority has a requirement to carry out repairs and maintenance to highways throughout the borough. This procurement shall cover the supply and delivery of the Asphalt products required to carry out these repairs and maintenance works. Lot 2 of the contract will include the recycling of waste products arising from the highways improvement schemes (planings). The material will be transported to a named site for testing and recycling. The tonnage of this product is expected to be in the region of 8000 per annum. It is unclear at this time if Lot 2 will be awarded to one or multiple suppliers and this decision will be made upon receipt of the information gathered via this market engagement exercise. Please note, this is a market engagement notice only, to gather information to inform the upcoming tender. A tender notice (UK4) will be issued when the procurement is live, it is at this point that you will be able to register your interest and access the documents

Comparable-procurement analytics

Benchmarked against retained Find a Tender procedures with CPV division 14. The category anchor is Slag, dross, ferrous waste and scrap (14630000); 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 142084 median · 15.9 average (75 of 208 with a bid count)5.5 average (80 of 208 with named award suppliers)Not published
Same buyer0Not publishedNot publishedNot published
Delivery region: UKE3131 median · 1 average (1 of 3 with a bid count)1 average (1 of 3 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.
