What this market looks like
258 business services, legal, hr and marketing contracts in East of England carry a published end date, worth £114m between them. They are held across 73 buyers, and the typical one is worth £66k.
174 of them expire within twelve months, and 61 are already inside the window where the buyer would normally be shaping the replacement. That is 67% of this market back in play inside a year.
264 different suppliers hold the work, and the three largest hold 4% of it. That is a fragmented market, which usually means no single relationship is decisive and a smaller supplier can win on merit.
4 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 CAMBRIDGE UNIVERSITY HOSPITALS NHS FOUNDATION TRUST (48), UNIVERSITY OF EAST ANGLIA (23), University of Bedfordshire (21).
The contracts here are most often held by EBSCO INTERNATIONAL INC. (6), KPMG LLP (4), AECOM LIMITED (3).
