Repair, maintenance and associated services related to aircraft, railways, roads and marine equipment market in France: size, suppliers and public contracts

Market size and key facts

In 2025, public buyers in France awarded 46 supply contracts for repair, maintenance and associated services related to aircraft, railways, roads and marine equipment through award notices on TED; the 8 of them that state a value (17.4%) add up to €34.3 million, a floor rather than the full contract value.

  • Since November 2023, 40 companies have won 60 public supply contracts for repair, maintenance and associated services related to aircraft, railways, roads and marine equipment in France, in 28 award notices from 25 public buyers.
  • 100% of these awards went to companies registered in France.
  • The five companies that win most often hold 36.7% of all awards.
  • 46.4% of the awards whose notice states the number of tenders received a single bid.

In proportion

All public purchasing in France — general government spending on goods, services and investment, the measure the OECD and the European Commission use for public procurement — came to €486 billion in 2025, 16.2% 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.

How we count: one award per procedure, lot and winning company, from live contract award notices; a joint procurement counts on every buyer's market. Values are the awarded amounts published in the notice (framework ceilings and estimates are never added), converted to euro at the ECB yearly average. Company size is the SME flag of the notice (eForms BT-165). Read the methodology.
