What is being bought

York College is looking to outsource its staff/student uniform and PPE requirements to a single supplier. The college requires the successful supplier to be able to receive and process uniform orders from college staff, students and parents starting from July 2026. Suppliers must be able to offer the full range as detailed in the pricing schedule/uniform list. Should the College decide to add additional college curriculum areas to the pricing schedule/uniform list, the successful supplier will be required to add this onto the existing college requirements. Any new requirements would be discussed and agreed with the successful supplier.

Comparable-procurement analytics

Benchmarked against retained Find a Tender procedures with CPV division 18. The category anchor is Occupational clothing, special workwear and accessories (18100000); 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 183518 median · 70.4 average (111 of 351 with a bid count)4.9 average (120 of 351 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.
