Amey tops ranking of largest suppliers

Leading outsourcer Amey topped the ranking of publicly-listed suppliers in Q1 2018. The firm won £238M from a single award for prison escorting issued by the Scottish Prison Service.

 

Ministry of Defence the biggest customer for top firms

The top listed firms win just over half of their contracts from central government. The Ministry of Defence is by far the biggest source of value to the top firms: it has awarded at least £1.3B of contracts to listed firms in the last year.


£2.1B of contracts expire in the next year

At least £2.1B of contract awards currently held by the top 40 listed firms are due to expire in the next 12 months.
