Comparable-procurement analytics

Benchmarked against retained Find a Tender procedures with CPV division 90. The category anchor is Sewage, refuse, cleaning and environmental services (90000000); 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 907,2695 median · 18.3 average (3,165 of 7,269 with a bid count)3 average (3,404 of 7,269 with named award suppliers)Not published

Delivery region: UK1,3345 median · 46.4 average (532 of 1,334 with a bid count)6.3 average (578 of 1,334 with named award suppliers)Not published
Similar published value (0.5×–2×)5775 median · 6.7 average (10 of 577 with a bid count)1.3 average (10 of 577 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.
