Comparable-procurement analytics

Benchmarked against retained Find a Tender procedures with CPV division 79. The category anchor is Public relations services (79416000); 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 796,3214 median · 31.9 average (2,136 of 6,321 with a bid count)3.3 average (2,395 of 6,321 with named award suppliers)Not published

Delivery region: UK1,7934 median · 62.2 average (589 of 1,793 with a bid count)5.6 average (696 of 1,793 with named award suppliers)Not published
Similar published value (0.5×–2×)5884 median · 6.8 average (25 of 588 with a bid count)1.2 average (25 of 588 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.
