Benchmarked against retained Find a Tender procedures with CPV division 77. The category anchor is Services incidental to forestry (77230000); 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 set | Procedures | Reported bids per procedure | Named award suppliers | Price evidence |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Market: CPV division 77 | 987 | 6 median · 23.7 average (320 of 987 with a bid count) | 4.1 average (332 of 987 with named award suppliers) | 1 comparable price pairs |
| Same buyer | 17 | Not published | Not published | Not published |
| Delivery region: UKJ | 91 | 7 median · 67.5 average (17 of 91 with a bid count) | 6 average (17 of 91 with named award suppliers) | 1 comparable price pairs |
| Similar published value (0.5×–2×) | 99 | 9 median · 9.3 average (4 of 99 with a bid count) | 2.3 average (4 of 99 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.
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.
No planning milestones published.
No linked framework, prior procurement or reprocurement published.
