What is being bought

HTE is seeking to establish a Dynamic Market for Taxi Services. The Dynamic Market will provide Participating Authorities the opportunity to carry out further competition between Tenderers who are admitted onto the Dynamic Market (“Admitted Tenderers”) for Taxi Services associated with the private hire and hackney carriage taxi services provide transportation for individuals or small groups on a regular, planned, or ad hoc, unplanned basis. The Dynamic Market will include Taxi Services and provision of associated technology and associated services which will support Participating Authorities with the delivery of their required Taxi Services to their stakeholders. Admitted Tenderers will be able to meet the relevant standards applicable to each of the areas covered by this Dynamic Market, as well as security standards, customer requirements and accreditation standards for the specific market. The Dynamic Market shall be one singular Lot for the provision of all taxi services and any associated services.

Comparable-procurement analytics

Benchmarked against retained Find a Tender procedures with CPV division 60. The category anchor is Transport services (excl. Waste transport) (60000000); 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 602,47314 median · 30 average (1,941 of 2,473 with a bid count)1.4 average (1,957 of 2,473 with named award suppliers)Not published
Same buyer1Not publishedNot publishedNot published
Delivery region: UK1074 median · 33.3 average (18 of 107 with a bid count)6.1 average (19 of 107 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.
