What is being bought

To support strategic workforce planning (effectively managing the workforce, focusing on having the right people, with the right skills, in the right roles, at the right time, and at the right cost) and to inform the development of a three year Learning and Development Plan (2026-2029), we need robust, organisation wide insight into current workforce skills and future capability needs. At present, we do not have a unified approach for assessing skills, which limits our ability to identify common themes or prioritise investment effectively. We are looking to procure a specialist supplier to design and deliver a Skills Gap Analysis exercise tailored to our organisational structure, job families (a group of roles that involve similar types of work, require similar skills, or follow a similar career path) and the currently used Civil Service competency framework. The exercise will: •Provide a consistent assessment of skills at individual, team and organisational levels. •Identify common capability gaps across directorates, enabling targeted planning and resource allocation. •Generate high quality evidence to shape the 2026-2029 L&D plan.

Comparable-procurement analytics

Benchmarked against retained Find a Tender procedures with CPV division 79. The category anchor is Human resources management consultancy services (79414000); 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 794,9463 median · 32.6 average (1,479 of 4,946 with a bid count)2.9 average (1,654 of 4,946 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.
