What this market looks like
26 medical equipment and pharmaceuticals contracts in South East England carry a published end date, worth £5.9m between them. They are held across 15 buyers, and the typical one is worth £79k.
17 of them expire within twelve months, and 8 are already inside the window where the buyer would normally be shaping the replacement. That is 65% of this market back in play inside a year.
23 different suppliers hold the work, and the three largest hold 23% 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 University Hospitals Sussex NHS Foundation Trust (4), MEDWAY NHS FOUNDATION TRUST (3), Oxford University Hospitals NHS Trust (3).
The contracts here are most often held by AERO HEALTHCARE LTD (3), SOPHiA GENETICS LTD (2), Monitor Cleaning Services Ltd (1).
