What is being bought

Braintree District Council (BDC), on behalf of the North Essex Economic Board (NEEB), are looking to procure a business support provider to deliver services across two years – 2023/24 & 2024/25 for North Essex businesses and residents (Braintree, Chelmsford, Colchester, Maldon and Tendring Local Authority Areas). The maximum budget available for this service is Year 1 (2023/24) £138,269.31 and Year 2 (2024/25) £287,835.36. Tenders that exceed the maximum annual budgets will be considered non-compliant and be rejected as such. There is potential for Epping and Harlow Local Authority Areas to join this arrangement prior to contract commencement.

Lot details

Lot 1

Funded by UK Shared Prosperity Funding, this is a one-off project estimated to last two years subject to satisfactory performance and continuing receipt of such funding. Braintree District Council on behalf of NEEB are seeking the provision of a specialist organisation to deliver free business support for the purpose of increasing the number of businesses accessing support services from within the NEEB area. This will include a series of targeted interventions to raise the profile of the NEEB support, such as (as a minimum) workshops, webinars, targeted marketing campaigns and drop-in sessions under the main themes of general business support, digital skills and financial and debt management support.

Comparable-procurement analytics

Benchmarked against retained Find a Tender procedures with CPV division 79. The category anchor is Miscellaneous business-related services (79990000); 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 7913,7404 median · 30.9 average (5,803 of 13,740 with a bid count)3.2 average (6,507 of 13,740 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.
