Home Office
Every notice Home Office has published to Find a Tender and Contracts Finder, read into one page: what they buy, how often they come back to market, and who wins their contracts.
When they’ll likely tender next
Projected from Home Office’s own gaps between notices — a forecast, never a promise. Tap a row for its workings.
01/ Open opportunities
Open for bids right now.
3 notices from Home Office are open, soonest closing first.
02/ Spending over time
How much they put out to tender.
Notices Home Office published each year, and the published value of those notices. Hover or tap a year to read it.
Read the shape, not the growth: our coverage of the registers differs by year, so a rise between two years is not by itself a rise in spending.

03/ Re-tender cycles
Every category on a cycle.
Each track is one full cycle for that category; the fill is how far through it today is. A lapsed cycle means the last round has run out and a new notice could appear at any time.
04/ Who wins here
The suppliers Home Office already uses.
Suppliers with the most published contract awards from Home Office. Each name opens that supplier’s own dossier.

How this page is made
Live figures
Every figure on this page is read from the RFP Quest corpus of UK public notices — Find a Tender and Contracts Finder, published under the Open Government Licence v3.0 — when the page is built, and the page is rebuilt at most hourly.
Published value sums the value each notice states, with any single notice capped at £100m so that one framework ceiling cannot pass for spending. A framework ceiling is the most a buyer could spend through an agreement, not what it will spend.
A re-tender cycle is the median gap between this buyer's notices in one category. It is shown only where the history supports it, and a cycle that has run out is shown as overdue, never as a forecast date.
Retention across the category is shown as two measures or not at all — how often a repeat contract goes to a supplier the buyer has not used, and how often the previous winner returns — and only above 60 repeat events.
