Industrial machinery contracts expiring in South West England: 48 worth £24m

48 industrial machinery contracts in South West England carry a published end date, worth £24m between them. They are held across 15 buyers, and the typical one is worth £55k.

35 of them expire within twelve months, and 20 are already inside the window where the buyer would normally be shaping the replacement. That is 73% of this market back in play inside a year.

47 different suppliers hold the work, and the three largest hold 8% of it. That is a fragmented market, which usually means no single relationship is decisive and a smaller supplier can win on merit.

2 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 UK Research & Innovation (UKRI) (16), UK Research and Innovation (14), Yeovil College (3).

The contracts here are most often held by Tilgear (2), Air Liquide Advanced Technologies (1), Scanbur (1).
