What this market looks like
335 public administration and defence contracts across the UK carry a published end date, worth £1.1bn between them. They are held across 179 buyers, and the typical one is worth £114k.
187 of them expire within twelve months, and 59 are already inside the window where the buyer would normally be shaping the replacement. That is 56% of this market back in play inside a year.
346 different suppliers hold the work, and the three largest hold 3% of it. That is a fragmented market, which usually means no single relationship is decisive and a smaller supplier can win on merit.
10 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 Ministry of Justice (29), South London and Maudsley NHS Foundation Trust (12), Greater Manchester Combined Authority (8).
The contracts here are most often held by South East London Mind Limited (4), INTERVENTIONS ALLIANCE LTD (3), Third Sector Leaders Kirklees (3).
