Comparable-procurement analytics

Benchmarked against retained Find a Tender procedures with CPV division 42. The category anchor is Lifting and handling equipment and parts (42400000); 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 42	1,096	4 median · 67 average (271 of 1,096 with a bid count)	6.3 average (288 of 1,096 with named award suppliers)	Not published
Same buyer	0	Not published	Not published	Not published
Delivery region: UK	280	24 median · 251.2 average (62 of 280 with a bid count)	18.4 average (63 of 280 with named award suppliers)	Not published
Similar published value (0.5×–2×)	97	2 median · 2 average (1 of 97 with a bid count)	1 average (1 of 97 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.
