Transport services contracts expiring in Yorkshire and the Humber: 184 worth £38m

184 transport services contracts in Yorkshire and the Humber carry a published end date, worth £38m between them. They are held across 11 buyers, and the typical one is worth £94k.

112 of them expire within twelve months, and 10 are already inside the window where the buyer would normally be shaping the replacement. That is 61% of this market back in play inside a year.

129 different suppliers hold the work, and the three largest hold 10% of it. That is a fragmented market, which usually means no single relationship is decisive and a smaller supplier can win on merit.

3 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 The North Yorkshire Council (145), East Riding of Yorkshire Council (18), South Yorkshire Mayoral Combined Authority (8).

The contracts here are most often held by East Yorkshire Motor Services Limited (9), Freedom Transport Solutions Ltd (7), Inter Yorks Ltd (6).
