Comparable-procurement analytics

Benchmarked against retained Find a Tender procedures with CPV division 85. The category anchor is Health and social work services (85000000); 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 8516,6511 median · 32.2 average (7,771 of 16,651 with a bid count)2 average (8,697 of 16,651 with named award suppliers)10 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.

Indicative price outcome

£1,366,259 is the median lowest-valid-bid benchmark for the broad CPV market sample, against this procedure’s published value of £2,100,000.

This is a historical comparator, not a bid-price forecast or a guaranteed saving. It excludes records where the published values cannot be sensibly compared and does not adjust for lot structure, quality weighting, framework terms or scope.

    "description": "Caerphilly County Borough Council is undertaking preliminary market engagement with suitable providers who are passionate about supporting children with disabilities and their families. The Council is looking to commission services that offers both outreach and respite support for children aged 5 to 17, who are ordinarily resident in Caerphilly and have substantial and permanent disabilities, life-limiting conditions, or complex health needs.\nThis service will play a vital role in helping families manage the demands of caring, while also enabling children to thrive through meaningful play, social interaction, and skill development. Outreach support will focus on helping children build independence and confidence in their communities, while respite will provide essential breaks for unpaid carers.\nThe Council is seeking suitable service providers who can deliver flexible, child-centred support in a variety of settings—including the child’s home, community venues, and public spaces. Services must be appropriately registered with Care Inspectorate Wales (CIW) and capable of offering both individual and group-based support, tailored to each child’s needs.\nStaff should be trained in communication methods such as PECS and Makaton, and familiar with behavioural approaches like PBS, PACE, and Team Teach. The ability to work outside standard school hours is essential.\nThis is an opportunity to work in close partnership with the Council to co-design and deliver services that make a real difference. We want to collaborate with providers who share our commitment to inclusive, responsive, and empowering support for children and families.\nIf your organisation is interested in helping shape this provision, please can you provide an expression of interest to procurement@caerphilly.gov.uk and or advise your ability to attend the supplier event planed as outline in this notice\nThe value of this tender will be approx. £350,000.00 EX VAT per annum, actual costs will be advertised at the time of tender.",

        "description": "Caerphilly County Borough Council is undertaking preliminary market engagement with suitable providers who are passionate about supporting children with disabilities and their families. The Council is looking to commission services that offers both outreach and respite support for children aged 5 to 17, who are ordinarily resident in Caerphilly and have substantial and permanent disabilities, life-limiting conditions, or complex health needs. This service will play a vital role in helping families manage the demands of caring, while also enabling children to thrive through meaningful play, social interaction, and skill development. Outreach support will focus on helping children build independence and confidence in their communities, while respite will provide essential breaks for unpaid carers.\nThe Council is seeking suitable providers who can deliver flexible, child-centred support in a variety of settings—including the child’s home, community venues, and public spaces. Services must be appropriately registered with Care Inspectorate Wales (CIW) and capable of offering both individual and group-based support, tailored to each child’s needs.\nStaff should be trained in communication methods such as PECS and Makaton, and familiar with behavioural approaches like PBS, PACE, and Team Teach.
