| 1 | Laboratory services | Not published |
Benchmarked against retained Find a Tender procedures with CPV division 71. The category anchor is Laboratory services (71900000); 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 71 | 4,160 | 3 median · 30.1 average (1,200 of 4,160 with a bid count) | 3.9 average (1,325 of 4,160 with named award suppliers) | Not published |
| Same buyer | 0 | Not published | Not published | Not published |
| Delivery region: UKL | 120 | 4 median · 34 average (25 of 120 with a bid count) | 7.8 average (35 of 120 with named award suppliers) | Not published |
| Similar published value (0.5×–2×) | 321 | 15 median · 21.8 average (6 of 321 with a bid count) | 10.7 average (6 of 321 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.
| Milestone | Type | Due | Status |
|---|---|---|---|
| The purpose of the Notice is to engage in pre-tender market engagement with interested Bidders. Questionnaires and further information available from NWSSP.ProcurementCataloguePathology@wales.nhs.uk | engagement | 30 Jun 2026 | scheduled |
