What is being bought

The City of Ely Council is seeking to carry out conservation repairs to the North and East Facing external facades of Oliver Cromwell's House. The purpose of the proposed works is to sensitively repair and restore elements of the external facade to the North and East elevations of the property, ensuring the building continues to serve its intended function while preserving and respecting its significant historic character. The proposed works comprise minor conservation repairs to the external fabric of Oliver Cromwell's House, including localised structural timber repairs, leadwork renewal, rainwater goods maintenance, and selective lime render reinstatement. All works will be undertaken on a like-for-like basis using traditional materials and methods, ensuring continued weather tightness while preserving the building's historic and architectural significance. All works are to be carried out utilising traditional materials and workmanship, and all repairs will be carried out on a like for like basis.

Comparable-procurement analytics

Benchmarked against retained Find a Tender procedures with CPV division 45. The category anchor is Construction work (45000000); 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 458,2364 median · 23.4 average (1,653 of 8,236 with a bid count)3.6 average (1,820 of 8,236 with named award suppliers)Not published

Similar published value (0.5×–2×)9054.5 median · 4.5 average (2 of 905 with a bid count)1 average (2 of 905 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.
