Awards between 1 mn and 50 mn EUR carry 66.88 per cent of new award value in 1,343 contracts, won by 392 firms. Above 50 mn EUR there are 16 awards and 7 winners. Below 25,000 EUR only 21.6 per cent of band value was awarded after a published call, so that is where the work stops being discoverable from the published record.

The four traps

The four traps

The four traps

NR THE TRAP WHY IT MATTERS

01 Two thirds of the recorded value is re-pricing, not new work The register publishes 25.50 bn EUR of construction value. New award decisions come to 8.63 bn. A plan sized on the larger figure is sized against a market that is not there to be bid for.

02 The concentration is on the buyer side, not the supplier side 4,059 winners share the market at 128.0 on the Herfindahl index, while 2,048 buyers hold it at 361.9, and at segment level buyer concentration reaches 1,607.9.

03 What keeps a new entrant out is not the procedure 95.67% of value was awarded in a channel where a call for competition had been published, and the one channel a newcomer could not have bid for, negotiation with no call, is 61 contracts and 1.35% of value. What binds is the capacity threshold.

04 The addressable market is 1,343 contracts Those contracts carry 66.88% of new award value and were won by 392 firms. The band above 50 mn EUR is 16 awards and 7 winners.

Who is named. Named tables carry legal persons only. Three independently written detection rules look for parties that are natural persons in law, and the edition withholds the union of what they find, 127 parties, without identity.

Corrections are dated. Changes made before publication are not errata and are listed separately. An erratum is a change to something a buyer already holds, and it takes a new version number.

Pooled across the market, buyer concentration is 361.9 on the Herfindahl index. At segment level it reaches 1,607.9 in utility, energy and water networks, 4.44 times the pooled figure. A plan written against the pooled number is written against a market that does not exist at segment level.
