Building materials contracts expiring in East Midlands: 53 worth £321m

53 building materials contracts in East Midlands carry a published end date, worth £321m between them. They are held across 21 buyers, and the typical one is worth £169k.

23 of them expire within twelve months, and 15 are already inside the window where the buyer would normally be shaping the replacement. That is 43% of this market back in play inside a year.

104 different suppliers hold the work, and the three largest hold 15% of it. That is a fragmented market, which usually means no single relationship is decisive and a smaller supplier can win on merit.

15 are frameworks rather than a single contract, so a large part of this market is reached by getting onto a supplier list first and competing for call-offs afterwards.

The most active buyers are VIA EAST MIDLANDS LIMITED (10), The Police, Fire and Crime Commissioner for Northamptonshire (6), Leicestershire County Council, trading as ESPO (5).

The contracts here are most often held by TRAVIS PERKINS TRADING COMPANY LIMITED (7), CAE ENGINEERING & ARCHITECTURE LTD (7), CKK CIVIL ENGINEERING LIMITED (5).
