Buyer: Transport for London →
London Underground operates and maintains a High Voltage (HV) Power Distribution Network, which includes multiple bulk supply in take points that distribute HV power to substations and distribution points through HV cables. These cables, which are 11kV and 22kV, are installed across the London Underground rail, public highways, and Network Rail Infrastructure. The existing network consists of cables over 80 years old, ranging from single and three-core Paper insulated Lead cables to Polymeric cables, with sizes varying from 70mm² to 630mm². In addition to managing HV cables, the HV Cables department also manages the control cables within the power estate, including both copper Pilot and Fibre Optic cables. To effectively manage fault repairs and maintain both HV and Pilot networks, the HV Cables department requires the ongoing support of a specialist contractor. This contractor will play a key role in assisting with power upgrades through project works. This aims to secure a commercial partnership with a specialised contractor who possesses the expertise and experience necessary to support both planned and reactive maintenance for the London Underground HV infrastructure. The services will cover maintenance, repair, fault finding, project support services and purchasing of cables to be installed.

Benchmarked against retained Find a Tender procedures with CPV division 31. The category anchor is Power distribution cables (31320000); 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 31 | 1,223 | 5 median · 77.6 average (305 of 1,223 with a bid count) | 6.5 average (358 of 1,223 with named award suppliers) | Not published |
| Same buyer | 12 | Not published | Not published | Not published |
| Delivery region: UK | 323 | 25 median · 267.2 average (77 of 323 with a bid count) | 16 average (91 of 323 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.
