What this market looks like
122 education and training contracts in East of England carry a published end date, worth £147m between them. They are held across 31 buyers, and the typical one is worth £56k.
100 of them expire within twelve months, and 12 are already inside the window where the buyer would normally be shaping the replacement. That is 82% of this market back in play inside a year.
145 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.
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 Mid and South Essex NHS Foundation Trust (47), ENGINEERING CONSTRUCTION INDUSTRY TRAINING BOARD (16), Essex County Council (8).
The contracts here are most often held by Forth Valley College (3), Anglia Ruskin University (2), OUTSPOKEN TRAINING LLP (2).
