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.

“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.

Transitioning to an alternative provider would introduce significant operational risk, including disruption to patient care, delays in service delivery, and the need for extensive retraining and mobilisation.\nThe supplier holds knowledge of the Trust's systems and clinical requirements, which cannot be replicated by another provider without substantial duplication of cost and time.  The Trust has assessed the market and concluded that no alternative provider could deliver the service to the required standard within the necessary timescales.",
