Repair and maintenance contracts expiring in Wales: 161 worth £146m

161 repair and maintenance contracts in Wales carry a published end date, worth £146m between them. They are held across 47 buyers, and the typical one is worth £181k.

57 of them expire within twelve months, and 12 are already inside the window where the buyer would normally be shaping the replacement. That is 35% of this market back in play inside a year.

177 different suppliers hold the work, and the three largest hold 6% of it. That is a fragmented market, which usually means no single relationship is decisive and a smaller supplier can win on merit.

14 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 Merthyr Tydfil Housing Association (29), Swansea Bay University Health Board (13), Aneurin Bevan University Health Board (10).

The contracts here are most often held by Bayer PLC (5), Fujifilm Healthcare Uk Limited (5), Carl Zeiss Ltd (3).
