Award criteria
Technical — 20
Financial — 80
| Item | Category | Quantity |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Engines and engine parts, Engine parts, Parts and accessories for vehicles and their engines, Mechanical spare parts except engines and engine parts, Axles and gearboxes, Axles, Gearboxes | Not published |
Benchmarked against retained Find a Tender procedures with CPV division 34. The category anchor is Parts and accessories for vehicles and their engines (34300000); 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 34 | 3,773 | 3 median · 23.2 average (1,460 of 3,773 with a bid count) | 3.7 average (1,628 of 3,773 with named award suppliers) | Not published |
| Same buyer | 30 | 2.5 median · 4.2 average (14 of 30 with a bid count) | 1.7 average (19 of 30 with named award suppliers) | Not published |
| Delivery region: UKN | 124 | 3.5 median · 15.3 average (66 of 124 with a bid count) | 3.1 average (73 of 124 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.
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.
No planning milestones published.
No linked framework, prior procurement or reprocurement published.
No documents are published in the current source record.
Diagnostic view. “Not published” means this current release does not provide a value.
