What is being bought

NCHA are initiating a programme of arboricultural asset management. We want to understand our trees, maximise the benefits they bring to our customers and manage risk appropriately. To assist us in drawing up a detailed specification for procurement, we are seeking market insights from potential providers. We are asking potential providers to please describe the services you are able to provide in this area by answering the soft market testing questionnaire.

Comparable-procurement analytics

Benchmarked against retained Find a Tender procedures with CPV division 77. The category anchor is Forestry services (77200000); 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 771,3765 median · 20.4 average (529 of 1,376 with a bid count)4 average (552 of 1,376 with named award suppliers)1 comparable price pairs

“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.
