This page lists the IT support, software and cyber security contracts that UK public buyers have open today. Councils, the NHS, schools, universities and government agencies all put IT work out to tender, and every notice below is a real one, published on an official procurement service and still open for bids.
140 IT contracts are open right now.
That is every open notice from the last 30 days that a UK public buyer has put out for IT, software and cyber work, anywhere in the country. Some are one-off contracts and some are supplier lists being opened; each card says which it is.
Counted against 2,355 public notices from the last 30 days, read this morning. 5 of them are in the carousel below.

In the 30 days to 22 September 2026, UK public buyers published 157 IT, software and cyber notices.
Separately, 140 are open to bid for as this page loaded. That is a different count, not a slice of the one above: it includes notices published before this window that are still accepting bids, and it leaves out any that have already closed.
The shape of the work matters as much as the amount. 129 of them are one-off contracts you bid for directly. 20 are supplier lists being opened — a framework or a dynamic market, where getting a place means being asked to quote for that buyer's work for years rather than winning one job. 8 are competitions among firms already on a list, closed to everyone else, and they are not in the carousel above for that reason.
The one-off contracts are worth what the buyers say they are worth, and the spread is wide. 102 of the 129 stated a value. The middle one was £265,000; half of them sat between £90,000 and £900,000; the smallest was £10. 27 were under £100,000, which is the size a firm without a bid writer can take on without clearing its diary. 27 stated no value at all, which is common below threshold and is why Bidfeed does not drop a notice for having no number on it.
Those figures are one-off contracts only. A framework or a dynamic market states the total across every supplier for the whole life of the arrangement, which is not a sum any single firm is paid, so mixing the two would give you a number nobody could earn.
Public IT work comes from every organisation that runs a service the public uses, and over the 30 days to 22 September 2026 that was 142 separate buyers across 157 notices. Grouped by what each one calls itself in its own notice:
That grouping is read from the buyer's own published name, so a body whose name says nothing about what it is lands in "other public bodies" rather than being guessed at.
One real example from each group, taken straight from the notices: Barnsley Metropolitan Borough Council (Councils); University of Dundee (Schools, colleges and universities); Guy's and St Thomas' NHS Foundation Trust (NHS bodies); Cairn Housing Association (Housing associations); The Police and Crime Commissioner for Lincolnshire (Police and fire). Those are buyers who published cleaning work in this window. They are not customers, not partners and not endorsements — none of them has anything to do with Bidfeed.
Two things follow from who they are, and both change how you bid. The first is that a lot of cleaning work never appears as a one-off contract at all: the buyer sets up a supplier list and then calls off work from it for years without advertising again. The second is that public buyers publish because they are required to, not because they are marketing to you, which is why the notices are dull, long and easy to miss.
IT work is spread across the whole country, because every public body runs systems. Across the same 157 notices, this is the spread by nation:
A notice can name more than one area, so these can add up to more than the total. A notice open to a supplier anywhere is counted once, as nationwide, and not again under each nation. A notice that names no area at all is in none of them.
That matters for a small firm because a notice tagged for the whole UK is often still winnable from one town — and a notice tagged for the county next door usually is not. Choosing your patch is the single setting that changes a digest most.
Watching this page is one way. The other is to let it come to you. Bidfeed reads the same official services every day, keeps the notices that fit your trade, your part of the country and the size of contract you want, and emails you a short digest: what the job is, who is buying, the deadline, the value, and a plain go or no-go with the reason. On a day with nothing worth your evening it sends nothing at all.
It costs £29 a month after a 14-day free trial, and you can cancel it yourself at any time. Bidfeed is new and this is early access, so the honest position is that you would be one of the first subscribers rather than one of many.
The official UK public procurement notice services, which is where public buyers are required to publish: Find a Tender, Contracts Finder and Public Contracts Scotland. Nothing on this page is typed in by hand. One limit, stated plainly: we do not read Sell2Wales or eTendersNI directly, so a small number of lower-value Welsh and Northern Irish notices that appear only on those services are missed.
Every morning. The feeds are read every day and this page is built from whatever is in them when you open it, so a contract that closed yesterday is gone and one published this morning is here. Every count on the page is worked out at the moment you load it, from the notices themselves.
Because that is what they are. A framework or a dynamic market is a list of approved suppliers a buyer will use for a type of work, often for four years. It is not a job you bid for today; it is a door, and getting through it means being asked to quote for that buyer's IT work for as long as the list runs. The value shown on those notices is the total across every supplier for the whole life of the arrangement, not a job one firm would win, which is why the numbers look large.
No. What stops most small firms is not the writing, it is never hearing about the notice until the week it closes. Bidfeed exists because the reading is the expensive part, not the bidding.
Anything from a sole trader upwards. Bidfeed is built for firms too small to employ a bid writer, which in practice runs up to a couple of hundred staff. You tell us your trade, the parts of the country you work in and the largest contract you want to see, and the filter is built from that.
