Lot 1
No lot description published.
The purpose of this project is to seek a Supplier to deliver a comprehensive Lineside Tree Survey across Northwest & Central Region – Central Route network. The survey covers all land where trees may impact railway operations, including Network Rail–owned land and adjacent lineside neighbour areas. The objective is to identify hazardous trees, leaf-fall risk, and Ash Dieback (ADB) presence, ensuring a robust understanding of vegetation-related risks across the route. Central Route network is to be surveyed by the end of the current Control Period, supporting a continuous inspection cycle. Survey outputs will form a detailed asset inventory for upload to Ellipse and any future Network Rail master asset register. Survey data shall be submitted at four-weekly intervals.

Benchmarked against retained Find a Tender procedures with CPV division 79. The category anchor is Survey services (79311000); 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 set | Procedures | Reported bids per procedure | Named award suppliers | Price evidence |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Market: CPV division 79 | 5,050 | 3 median · 32.5 average (1,528 of 5,050 with a bid count) | 2.9 average (1,713 of 5,050 with named award suppliers) | Not published |
| Same buyer | 23 | Not published | Not published | Not published |
| Delivery region: UK | 1,417 | 4 median · 58.2 average (414 of 1,417 with a bid count) | 4.8 average (490 of 1,417 with named award suppliers) | Not published |
| Similar published value (0.5×–2×) | 441 | 6.5 median · 7.6 average (18 of 441 with a bid count) | 1.3 average (18 of 441 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.
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.
