Comparable-procurement analytics

Benchmarked against retained Find a Tender procedures with CPV division 77. The category anchor is Tree-maintenance services (77211500); 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

“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.

It it is the Council's intention to procure the contract by July 2026 to have enough time for the contractor to survey and locate the new trees within the borough before the next planting season (Autumn 25-Spring 26). The incumbent contract and the new contract will overlap for 3 months but due to the timeline to survey, excavate and plant the new trees by the deadline of March 2027 we need to start in July the survey process, while the incumbent contractor is still watering the trees planted the previous year 2025-26. This market engagement is to understand the market landscape. ",
