What is being bought

Published requirement description

Glascote Heath and Stonydelph have been selected as the focus neighbourhoods in Tamworth, meaning local residents will shape how this funding is used. The programme emphasises community empowerment: decisions are made by a local Neighbourhood Board of residents and stakeholders, supported by the local authority and Member of Parliament. A map of the area is attacheed

Tamworth Borough Council, acting as the Accountable Body for the Glascote Heath and Stonydelph Pride in Place Programme, seeks suitably qualified provider to deliver a comprehensive community engagement and consultation programme across the Pride in Place neighbourhood.

Question for the bid
This buyerTamworth Borough Council · all categories
What to do with it
How often do SMEs win?
i

How often small and medium firms win.

Share of awards where the winner’s size is known.

The counts under this question show how many awards have a known supplier size.

Last 36 months.

Buyer: 6 of 9 known-size awards · market: division 79 · West Midlands, n=670
67%49%

Small firms have won here. Neither number says whether you qualify; it describes who has been winning.

How often do local suppliers win?
i

How often local firms win similar work.

Winners with a registered address in the delivery region, out of awards with a known address.

Here, local means registered in West Midlands.

A local branch does not count if the registered address is elsewhere.

54%16%

Most of this buyer’s recorded winners are registered in West Midlands.

How long to a decision?
i

How long buyers here take to decide after bids close.

Middle value in days from the deadline to the first award notice, on competitions that published both dates.

Only decided tenders count, so slow ones still waiting are not in.

Last 36 months.

Buyer: no decision dates published · market: division 79 · West Midlands, n=111
—53 days

Half of these awards were announced within 53 days of the bid deadline.

How often single-bid or direct?

About this data
  • Source. Official UK public procurement notices (Find a Tender), reused under the Open Government Licence v3.0. New notices arrive through the day; the figures are rebuilt nightly.
  • Two views, kept apart. The authority’s own track record and the wider market for the same kind of work sit side by side and are never mixed. Where the local picture is too thin, a figure widens to a broader market and says which one it used.
  • Forecasts are labelled. The price forecast and its range, possible competitors and the match score are our estimates from past awards: not published facts, not win chances and not price advice. Official notices do not say who is bidding.
  • Every figure shows what it rests on. Not every notice publishes a bid count, a value or a delivery region, so each figure carries the number of records behind it, and one built on few records is marked as such. The on a figure explains it; the counting rules are in the methodology. Spotted something wrong? Tell us.
