A small borough with a construction-heavy spending profile
Nuneaton and Bedworth is a compact non-metropolitan district covering 30.5 square miles in Warwickshire, with a population of around 130,000. For a borough of that size, the spending records we hold show a busy procurement operation. Our dataset covers 11,449 transactions across 610 matched suppliers, with data running from 2023 to 2026 sourced from both Find a Tender and the council's own website. On the contracts side, we've tracked 13 published contracts worth a combined £11.25 million, alongside 26 tenders valued at £89.9 million. The payment-level data doesn't carry a spend total, but the volume of transactions tells you this council is active and publishing regularly. Fifteen source files feed into our dataset here, giving reasonable coverage of how the money moves. If you're looking at West Midlands boroughs, this one is worth understanding.
Construction dominates, and BSP leads the pack
Construction is the clear spending heavyweight. Of the payments we've matched to identified suppliers, 61.7% of spend, around £62.1 million, goes to construction firms. BSP Construction Limited sits at the top with £34 million in recorded payments, more than four times the next supplier. Lovell Partnerships (£5.7 million), Jeakins Weir (£3.9 million), and several other construction firms fill out the top ten. Professional and technical services come in second at 13.4%, with Impart Links Limited pulling in £8 million. Market concentration sits at an HHI of 1,317, which is unconcentrated. But the top five suppliers still account for 55.1% of tracked spend, and the top ten take 67.9%. So while no single firm locks the market down completely, BSP's position is dominant within the data we hold. Outside construction, spend fragments quickly across admin services, IT, finance, and waste management.
Open tenders only, but how much goes unpublished?
Of the 3 contracts with procurement method data, all went through open tender. No direct awards, no restricted procedures. That's a clean record, though it only covers above-threshold contracts. The median contract value across these sits at £3 million, so what we're seeing are larger pieces of work going through proper competitive process. With 26 tenders worth £89.9 million in the pipeline data, there is a healthy flow of upcoming opportunities, skewed towards bigger commissions. The contract size profile leans large, which fits with the construction-heavy spending pattern. Smaller day-to-day procurement likely runs through frameworks or purchase orders that don't show up in formal contract notices. For the work that does get published, competition appears to be the default route. Whether that openness extends to the mid-range and smaller contracts is harder to say from the data we hold.
