Public contracts ending soon

10,842 UK public contracts of two years or more, worth £20,000 to £1 million, end between January 2027 and January 2028. When a contract ends, the buyer usually tenders it again, often three to six months before the end date. From the award notices on Contracts Finder. Updated 31 October 2026.

How to use it: open your trade, find contracts in your area, note the end date, and watch that buyer from about six months before (not listed here? how to find who holds a contract). Many buyers now publish an early notice first, asking suppliers for views: that is the moment to get in touch. If you hold one of these contracts, this is your re-tender: how to keep it. In our count of 732 service contracts that came round again, the holder lost it one time in three, so a well-prepared newcomer has a real chance.

Being re-tendered now (27)

Open tenders and early notices that look like the next round of a contract in the award history (matched on buyer and title, so check the notice). The holder is the one named in the old award.
