What this market looks like
17 electrical equipment contracts in East Midlands carry a published end date, worth £188m between them. They are held across 13 buyers, and the typical one is worth £161k.
10 of them expire within twelve months, and 3 are already inside the window where the buyer would normally be shaping the replacement. That is 59% of this market back in play inside a year.
44 different suppliers hold the work, and the three largest hold 7% of it. That is a fragmented market, which usually means no single relationship is decisive and a smaller supplier can win on merit.
3 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 Leicestershire County Council, trading as ESPO (3), The Police, Fire and Crime Commissioner for Northamptonshire (2), REDHILL ACADEMY TRUST (2).
The contracts here are most often held by DMA SIGNS LIMITED (1), NUNEATON SIGNS LIMITED (1), STOCKSIGNS LIMITED (1).
