What is being bought

Stockport Metropolitan Borough Council are looking to procure a contractor to carry out the following works: The proposed works comprise a programme of thermal improvement measures at Stopford House, Stockport (SK1 3XE), aimed at improving the building's energy performance and reducing heat loss. The project is split into two workstreams: window alcove insulation works throughout the office accommodation and insulation improvement works within the plant room area. The two workstreams form part of the same overall insulation improvement project but are to be considered separately for pricing, design development and review. The detailed requirements are contained within the individual project briefing documents, drawings, schedules, photographs and supporting tender information. Stopford House is an existing multi-storey building situated within Stockport town centre. The building occupies a constrained urban location with interfaces to surrounding highways, pedestrian routes, neighbouring buildings and other town centre activities. The proposed works are to be undertaken within and to the existing building. Stopford House contains existing building fabric, structural elements, mechanical and electrical services and operational plant which will require consideration when planning access, material movements and construction activities. The contract will be for an initial term of 14 weeks (the "Contract Period").

Comparable-procurement analytics

Benchmarked against retained Find a Tender procedures with CPV division 45. The category anchor is Insulation work (45320000); 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 458,2144 median · 23.5 average (1,644 of 8,214 with a bid count)3.6 average (1,810 of 8,214 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.
