Why Tender in the Government Sector?

With government tender contracts regularly being published, the opportunity to supply to the government is very enticing as the range of goods, works, and services required is so vast, spanning multiple sectors and industries. Buyers publish everything from government consultancy tenders and government construction contracts to government IT contracts and government building tenders — all open for tendering to qualified suppliers.

One of the major benefits of bidding on these government contracts for tender is that you are guaranteed payment if you win the tender. Public sector buyers are bound by rules and regulations (i.e. procurement policies) that ensure a fair and transparent procurement process, which ensures the payments are honoured. The payment terms are usually also more favourable, which can make supplying goods and services to a government department a far more attractive prospect for businesses than supplying to private sector buyers.

Whether you’re tendering for government IT tenders in Scotland or government security contracts in England, your business will benefit from high quantity and quality business opportunities when you tender for government contracts.

The Impact of the
New Procurement Act

Since the Procurement Act came into force in February 2025, public sector procurement activity has become more transparent, data-driven, and SME-inclusive. Buyers are publishing clearer, standardised notices earlier in the procurement cycle, leading to better visibility of upcoming opportunities. There’s been a rise in flexible and SME-focused procedures, such as smaller lot structures and dynamic frameworks, reflecting the Act’s emphasis on openness and value for money. Overall, early trends show an increase in notice volumes, quicker tender cycles, and more proactive buyer engagement—creating greater opportunities for suppliers who monitor and respond strategically using Tracker Intelligence.

Frameworks Now Account for 73.1% of Total Award Value

With frameworks representing 73.1% of the total value of public sector awards, they have become the primary route for suppliers to win business under the new procurement regime. Frameworks provide long-term, pre-approved access to contracts, allowing suppliers to compete for multiple projects without re-tendering each time. This shift highlights the strategic importance of securing a place on relevant frameworks early—especially as buyers increasingly use them to streamline procurement and ensure compliance with the Procurement Act. For suppliers, being on the right frameworks not only boosts visibility and credibility but also provides a steady pipeline of opportunities, making them an essential foundation for sustainable public sector growth.

£386 Billion in Re-tendering Opportunities

Over the next 12 months, nearly 56,000 public sector contracts worth £386 billion are due to expire—creating one of the biggest waves of re-tendering opportunities in years. As these contracts come back to market, suppliers have a limited window to prepare, engage buyers early, and position themselves for success. Tracker Intelligence gives you the insight and timing advantage you need to act fast—identifying which contracts are ending, which authorities are re-procuring, and where your business can compete most effectively. With real-time alerts, pipeline visibility, and market analytics, Tracker ensures you never miss a re-tendering opportunity in your sector.

Devolution is Expanding Local Opportunities

Devolution continues to reshape the UK procurement landscape, with Scotland and Wales taking greater control over their own public spending priorities and procurement frameworks. However, many regional and local opportunities in these nations are not published on the main UK procurement portals, creating a major blind spot for suppliers relying solely on traditional sources. To stay competitive, businesses must look beyond central databases and tap into regional tender activity. Tracker Intelligence bridges this gap by aggregating opportunities from devolved and local sources—ensuring you see the full picture, uncover hidden tenders, and capitalise on high-value contracts across every part of the UK.

Whether you’re interested in winning government hospital tenders or government construction tenders, Tracker’s government contract search function makes finding and bidding on government contract tenders easier than ever.
