The three most frequent suppliers are named on 16% of 25 awarded procedures (each procedure counted once, so a panel shared by several of them is not double-counted); 164 distinct suppliers hold at least one. Descriptive concentration of published awards — not a statement of preference.
Published award value (24m)£3.0mSum of published VAT-exclusive values on 13 of 152 single-supplier awards; the five largest make 47%. Not spend and not a budget: notices sometimes republish a framework total or a mis-scaled figure — the largest rows are listed below so you can check.
Typical single-supplier award (24m)£245k medianrobust · n=13Middle half £198k–£269k.

Data coverage & method
- Source: Find a Tender OCDS releases; mixed PCR 2015 / Procurement Act 2023 history — no legal-regime label is applied.
- Counts are procedures (one notice family), not lots. Authority cluster = canonical buyer plus beneficiary and procuring-entity roles.
- Published procedure values exist on a minority of notices; their lifetime sum (£5.0m, ceilings stripped) is a catalogue fact, not spend, and is not shown as a headline.
- Awards on procedures published in the last 24 months: 281 award records on 25 procedures (152 to a single canonical supplier, 24 multi-supplier, 105 with no supplier published). Typical award uses single-supplier VAT-exclusive GBP values below £5bn, excludes framework/DPS ceilings and — as a heuristic for republished framework totals — any amount repeated three or more times inside this authority’s 24-month awards; 13 values come from the contract record when the award carried none.
- Contract end dates: 0 of 296 published contracts carry a period end; 0 end within 18 months, 0 within 6.
- Never shown: contact details, predicted winners, payment behaviour, or “who to invite”.
