This report summarises 395 jobs completed between 03 February 2025 to 30 September 2025, focusing on labour billing per engineer by UK Government Region. Plant Sales jobs are excluded so that the analysis concentrates on service, remedial, breakdown and related work. Overnight allowances (at £250 per engineer per night) have already been deducted, and parts costs have been approximated based on the type of job, so the figures are indicative rather than "to the penny".

Regions such as Scotland and North East sit above the overall average, while Yorkshire and the Humber falls below the headline figure, reflecting a mix that includes a large number of lower-value jobs.
