Bidtips
In short: Public sector contracts in England are advertised on the Find a Tender service and Contracts Finder, with many councils also using their own portals. Under the Procurement Act 2023, in force since February 2025, suppliers register once on the Central Digital Platform to bid. Contracts cover everything from facilities management and maintenance to property services. Read the specification closely, answer every question and price clearly. Fraser Bond works with organisations needing property, facilities and lettings services.
