What is being bought

Liverpool City Council is aiming to develop robust and flexible EV smart charging infrastructure across the Realising Net Zero Liverpool (RNZL) Exemplar sites which includes Neesham Park, Festival gardens and the Liverpool city centre area. The purpose of the engagement is to estimate the potential market opportunities, capacity and innovation around installation of rapid (50 KWh) and ultra-rapid (150 KWh +) EV chargers. The project will include installation of public EV chargers and utilisation of the chargers as a hub for power sources fulfilling additional/other occasional energy demands and readiness for emergency use.

Comparable-procurement analytics

Benchmarked against retained Find a Tender procedures with CPV division 31. The category anchor is Chargers (31158000); 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 setProceduresReported bids per procedureNamed award suppliersPrice evidence
Market: CPV division 311,3965 median · 69 average (381 of 1,396 with a bid count)6.1 average (456 of 1,396 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.

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.
