Lot details

Lot 1

Three flexible couplings are at an age where they require a major overhaul. The Scottish Ministers wishes to engage a contractor for the servicing including potential replacement, installation and commissioning of parts on MRV Scotia whilst in port. The contractor will be required to undertake onboard servicing by providing a qualified service engineer to attend MRV Scotia to carry out the coupling service in accordance with the manufacturer's procedures. The contractor will be responsible for providing replacement parts such as new coupling elements and coupling links in accordance with the current equipment specifications. All supplied components must be type approved by Lloyd’s Register. The contractor must carry out alignment checks both prior to and following the installation.

Comparable-procurement analytics

Benchmarked against retained Find a Tender procedures with CPV division 31. The category anchor is Generators (31120000); 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 318316 median · 87.1 average (154 of 831 with a bid count)6.5 average (179 of 831 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.
