Custom software development and IT consultancy holds 52.45 per cent of IT value and is at the same time the least concentrated segment, at 212.1 on the Herfindahl index across 740 winners. The pooled market figure is 160.0, but at segment level concentration runs between 1.33 and 4.99 times that figure, so a plan written against the pooled number is written against a market that does not exist at segment level.

The four traps

The four traps

NR THE TRAP WHY IT MATTERS

01 The published market is nearly twice the market you can bid for Counted as the register publishes them, these two years hold 12,580 IT contracts and 1.90 bn EUR. Counted once each, with re-pricing separated from new work, they are 11,442 contracts and 1.03 bn EUR.

02 Dispersion is not contestability The published winner concentration is 160.0 on the Herfindahl index, the most dispersed of the four sector cuts in this series. The median buyer with at least five IT contracts gives 41.0% of its IT value to a single supplier, and the median buyer level figure is 2,737.2.

03 One CPV range, two different businesses Open tender carries 20.108% of awards and 64.455% of value, while the two low value survey routes carry 60.996% and 8.656% of awards against 8.409% and 2.753%. A bid function built for one shape returns the wrong answer against the other.

04 Which rulebook applies is itself a band Buyers measurably on the utilities side hold 15.903% of IT value, 21.198% once group shared service companies are counted with them, and 33.379% at the widest defensible reading. Not one buyer sits on both sides.

Who is named. Named tables carry legal persons only. Five independently written detection rules look for parties that are natural persons in law; of the 1,300 winners in the headline population 16 are a sole proprietorship or personal firm, and none of them is named.

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, winner concentration is 160.0 on the Herfindahl index. Among buyers with at least five IT contracts the median gives 41.0 per cent of its IT value to one supplier, and the median buyer level figure is 2,737.2, roughly seventeen times the published one. The sector looks open and the individual account does not, and the account is what a sales plan is written against.
