Comparable-procurement analytics
Benchmarked against retained Find a Tender procedures with CPV division 79. The category anchor is Event services (79952000); 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 79 | 4,301 | 3 median · 33.4 average (1,176 of 4,301 with a bid count) | 2.8 average (1,317 of 4,301 with named award suppliers) | Not published |
| Same buyer | 18 | Not published | Not published | Not published |
| Delivery region: UK | 1,157 | 4 median · 68.5 average (304 of 1,157 with a bid count) | 4.8 average (363 of 1,157 with named award suppliers) | Not published |
| Similar published value (0.5×–2×) | 401 | 5.5 median · 7.2 average (22 of 401 with a bid count) | 1.2 average (22 of 401 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.
