What is being bought

We will be establishing a Dynamic Purchasing System (DPS) for the inspections of plant passports and other associated inspections and audits. This DPS will allow competent authorities (CAs) to hold mini-competitions for work as and when required. Typically, we will hold these competitions annually although we may choose to run competitions at any point. The DPS will be live until 23/02/2029.

Comparable-procurement analytics

Benchmarked against retained Find a Tender procedures with CPV division 77. The category anchor is Forestry services (77200000); 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 77	839	5 median · 26.7 average (246 of 839 with a bid count)	4.4 average (254 of 839 with named award suppliers)	1 comparable price pairs
Same buyer	1	Not published	Not published	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.
