The initial term of the Contract will be for four years from 1st April 2026 until 31st March 2030 with a proviso in the Contract documentation for the Council to have the option to extend the Contract up to a maximum of three years after the initial term.

Comparable-procurement analytics

Benchmarked against retained Find a Tender procedures with CPV division 85. The category anchor is Health services (85100000); 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.

Market: CPV division 8521,8481 median · 28.4 average (11,095 of 21,848 with a bid count)2 average (12,180 of 21,848 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.

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.
