Methodology
Every row is a verbatim sentence read from the named source's own page through our fetch service on the date shown, hash-pinned to the stored read (the sha of the page's visible text; the raw page is mirrored to R2).
7 of the 33 named sources that could be read published a usable figure; 26 published none and are recorded as not published, never filled in; 1 could not be read (blocked, dead or unreachable) and count nowhere.
The headline figures (median, minimum, maximum, quartiles) are over ONE figure per source for each breakdown it prices, in GBP (a source's median where its page yielded several accepted sentences for one breakdown), so a page that gives figures for several breakdowns gives one for each and N counts 9 figures, never sentences; 117 candidate sentence(s) were refused by a reviewer with the reason recorded.
The fuller derivation this dataset is chartered to grow into (not yet what the figures above are; they are each source's own published figure as read): each examiner's published price normalised to ex VAT, per item, by equipment family (forklift and telehandler, hoist and patient hoist, vehicle lift, tail lift, lift, crane, accessories), with the visit minimum and the multi-item discount kept beside it; the median and range per family; the share of examiners that publish a price at all
117 candidate sentences on these pages were refused by a reviewer; each refusal and its reason is recorded in the review ledger.
