What this market looks like
20 industrial machinery contracts in West Midlands carry a published end date, worth £22m between them. They are held across 13 buyers, and the typical one is worth £143k.
10 of them expire within twelve months, and 5 are already inside the window where the buyer would normally be shaping the replacement. That is 50% of this market back in play inside a year.
20 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.
1 is a framework 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 The Police and Crime Commissioner for Warwickshire (4), Citizen Housing Group Ltd (2), Staffordshire County Council (2).
The contracts here are most often held by MAND PLS (1), Industore (1), WESSEX LIFT CO LTD (1).
