Miscellaneous evaluation or testing instruments market in Sweden: size, suppliers and public contracts

Market size and key facts

In 2025, public buyers in Sweden awarded 43 supply contracts for miscellaneous evaluation or testing instruments through award notices on TED; the 13 of them that state a value (30.2%) add up to €14.9 million, a floor rather than the full contract value.

  • Since November 2023, 49 companies have won 76 public supply contracts for miscellaneous evaluation or testing instruments in Sweden, in 46 award notices from 29 public buyers.
  • 76.3% of these awards went to companies registered in Sweden; the most frequent foreign origin is Ireland.

  • 49.1% of the awards whose notice states the number of tenders received a single bid.

In proportion

All public purchasing in Sweden — general government spending on goods, services and investment, the measure the OECD and the European Commission use for public procurement — came to €106 billion in 2025, 17.6% 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.
