How it usually goes here

Bids per tender3.3on average
Only one bid188 of 692tenders

In the last 3 years, 188 of this public body's 692 tenders had only one bid; on average, 3.3 bids per tender.

By type of procedure

Tender: 65 of 406 with only one bid (16%) · 4.2 bids on average · 42 without the list of bidders

  • Direct award: not applicable (2,170 procedures)
  • Prior consultation: 123 of 286 with only one (43%) · 2.0 on average · 11 without the list of bidders

  • Other procedures: 12 of 13 with only one (92%) · 1.3 on average

Direct award: the public body picks who it buys from, without asking companies to compete. Prior consultation: only the companies the public body invites can bid (at least three). Tender: advertised publicly: any company can bid. Framework agreement: a purchase under an existing framework agreement: competition is decided in the tender that set up the framework agreement. Other procedures: excluded contracts, special sectors and other regimes.

The totals count tenders with the list of bidders published on base.gov; by type, every procedure counts. The lots of one tender count once.

How far below the maximum price:under 8%a little8% to 14%typical15% or morea lot

We leave out lots (base.gov gives them the maximum price of the whole tender), contracts above the maximum price and those closed more than 50% below: they skew the numbers.

"Below max" is the usual discount in won tenders with a published maximum price (direct awards are left out: they almost always close at the maximum price). "At maximum price": most winners did not go below it. "Not enough data": fewer than 3 tenders to count.
