Vehicles and transport equipment contracts expiring in North East England: 73 worth £237m

73 vehicles and transport equipment contracts in North East England carry a published end date, worth £237m between them. They are held across 20 buyers, and the typical one is worth £125k.

61 of them expire within twelve months, and 5 are already inside the window where the buyer would normally be shaping the replacement. That is 84% of this market back in play inside a year.

34 different suppliers hold the work, and the three largest hold 47% of it. That is a concentrated market: displacing an incumbent here means going after one of a small number of established holders.

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 Tyne and Wear Passenger Transport Executive T/A Nexus (47), Durham County Council (3), PD TEESPORT LIMITED (2).

The contracts here are most often held by Go North East Limited (14), NORTHSTAR CONSTELLATION LIMITED (12), JIM HUGHES COACHES LIMITED (9).
