Live Contact Centre Contracts: A Bounty of £55.5 Million

Prepare for a surge in contract activity, with 280 live contact centre contracts set to expire within the next 24 months. This translates to a staggering £55.5 million in annual spending up for grabs. For suppliers seeking to expand their public sector footprint, the Local Government sector emerges as a particularly fertile ground, representing the largest share of expiring contracts.

Regional Dynamics: South East vs. Greater London

While the South East leads the pack with 40 expiring contracts, Greater London takes the crown for the highest potential revenue, with £22.5 million in annual spending on the line. This disparity underscores the importance of understanding regional nuances. Suppliers must tailor their approach to specific regions, considering factors such as local government priorities, budget constraints, and technological preferences.

The December 2024 Contact Centre Rush: A Critical Window

December 2024 will be a pivotal moment for the contact centre market, with 53 contracts expiring and a potential £19.1 million in annual spend. For suppliers with the agility and resources to capitalise on this concentrated opportunity, December 2024 presents a unique chance to secure multiple contracts and gain a foothold in the market. But don’t despair if you miss this window, as the report indicates a steady stream of opportunities throughout the 24-month period, with an average of over 20 contracts expiring each month and an average value of £3.5 million per contract.

Rolling Contact Centre Contracts: The Steady Revenue Stream

Beyond the excitement of expiring contracts lies the stability of rolling contracts. With 332 rolling contact centre contracts valued at £6.4 million annually, they offer a more predictable and sustainable source of revenue. The Local Government sector, particularly in Greater London, remains the primary player in this space. Suppliers with expertise in this sector can secure long-term partnerships and capitalize on the consistent demand for contact centre services.

Top Contact Centre Players: Netcall vs. BT Global Services vs. Mitel vs. Gamma

Understanding the competitive landscape is essential for success. Netcall leads the pack with the most expiring contracts, indicating a strong market presence and a wide range of clients. However, BT Global Services dominates in terms of annual spend, securing £4.7 million from expiring contracts and holding the largest number of rolling contracts. This suggests that BT Global Services may specialize in larger, higher-value contracts.

In the brand arena, both Netcall and Mitel are dominant players, with Netcall leading in both the number of expiring and rolling contracts, and Mitel leading in terms of annual spend on expiring contracts. This indicates a strong preference for these brands within the public sector.
