About This Data
These statistics are generated daily from TenderTracker's database of UK public sector contract notices, aggregated from the Find a Tender Service (above-threshold procurements under the Procurement Act 2023) and Contracts Finder (sub-threshold opportunities). Published values reflect award amounts where available, otherwise estimated notice values; notices without a stated value are excluded from value totals, as are IDIQ, schedule and agreement awards, whose stated value is a ceiling rather than money spent. Figures were last updated on September 28, 2026. Cite this page as "TenderTracker UK Public Procurement Statistics".
