Comparable-procurement analytics

Benchmarked against retained Find a Tender procedures with CPV division 79. The category anchor is Business and management consultancy and related services (79400000); 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 795,9573 median · 32.9 average (1,955 of 5,957 with a bid count)3.3 average (2,189 of 5,957 with named award suppliers)Not published

Similar published value (0.5×–2×)998 median · 91.3 average (3 of 99 with a bid count)13.7 average (3 of 99 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.

All feedback will be taken into review and will be given an equal weighting to ensure that no advantage is gained by any Consultant as a result of their participation.\nPast Market Engagement:\nMarket engagement sessions were held by SCAPE with key organisations (both Clients and Consultants) within the corporate services space. Engagement activities commenced on 04/11/2024 and will continue until 27/02/2026. During market engagement sessions that were undertaken prior to this notice, information was provided on the upcoming procurement and an opportunity to give feedback on specific points was provided to the organisations who participated.\nAn independent consultant under NDA was appointed by SCAPE to undertake initial market engagement on 04/11/2024. Results of this engagement were anonymised and only the categories of organisations and individuals engaged were shared with SCAPE Scotland.\nSuppliers participating in the market engagement activities were asked a standard set of questions, all of which have been recorded. SCAPE Scotland has taken great care to ensure this process has not given undue advantage as a result of any participation. All feedback has been taken into review as a whole and has been given equal consideration.\n(SC Ref:795005)",
