What is being bought

This is a pre-market engagement document and is not a tender document. The outcome expected of this market engagement is to guide the Council's future procurement for these works, and for potential providers to put forward their interest, should this proceed to a tender stage in future. It is intended that providers can submit comments about these documents which potentially could be used to assist us should this progress to a tendering stage. South Holland District Council (SHDC) and Boston Borough Council (BBC) are seeking an Arborist / suitably qualified inspector, to complete an inventory of trees on Council land with an assessment of risk in the respective areas, as follows: 1. Zone all SHDC and BBC sites (see A1 in the example strategy attached, Appendix A) - desk exercise 2. Carry out an inventory of trees across all sites - collect data as per current Industry/Forest Research Data Standards 3. Undertake Active Assessment of those trees in Zones of High Confluence 4. Train Council 'parks and gardens' staff to be able to undertake Passive Assessment (half a day in the field)

Comparable-procurement analytics

Benchmarked against retained Find a Tender procedures with CPV division 03. The category anchor is Trees (03452000); 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 032586 median · 27.2 average (97 of 258 with a bid count)6.4 average (101 of 258 with named award suppliers)Not published

Delivery region: UKF31Not publishedNot publishedNot 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.
