Installation services of electrical and mechanical equipment market in Europe: size, suppliers and public contracts

Market size and key facts

  • Since November 2023, 563 companies have won 864 public supply contracts for installation services of electrical and mechanical equipment in 30 European countries, in 579 award notices from 403 public buyers.

In proportion

All public purchasing in the EU-27 — general government spending on goods, services and investment, the measure the OECD and the European Commission use for public procurement — came to €2.93 trillion in 2025, 15.5% of GDP (Eurostat). Award notices on TED cover only the contracts above the EU thresholds, so they show who wins, not the whole of that spending.
