What this market looks like
422 building materials contracts across the UK carry a published end date, worth £1.5bn between them. They are held across 229 buyers, and the typical one is worth £162k.
234 of them expire within twelve months, and 103 are already inside the window where the buyer would normally be shaping the replacement. That is 55% of this market back in play inside a year.
496 different suppliers hold the work, and the three largest hold 5% of it. That is a fragmented market, which usually means no single relationship is decisive and a smaller supplier can win on merit.
53 are frameworks rather than a single contract, so part of this market is reached by getting onto a supplier list first and competing for call-offs afterwards.
The most active buyers are Gov Facility Services Ltd (23), City of Bradford Metropolitan District Council (16), UK Research and Innovation (15).
The contracts here are most often held by RAPID ENERGY LTD (13), CAE ENGINEERING & ARCHITECTURE LTD (9), TRAVIS PERKINS TRADING COMPANY LIMITED (8).
