CEDIA won 435 of its 450 public contract awards in Ecuador without a rival from 2016-02-05 to 2026-08-20: 418 without a competition and 17 after a competition that drew a single bid. 48 buyers awarded it without a rival, the largest Escuela Superior Politécnica del Litoral with 36.

An award is uncontested when the buyer had no rival offer to weigh: it was made without a competition (direct award, negotiated procedure without a call for tenders, sole-source or advance-notice contract), or a competition was held and only one bid arrived. Every count below is built award by award from the official notices. Awards to individuals are not included.
