Find a Tender
At 11pm on 31 December 2020, the Find a Tender service replaced Tenders Electronic Daily (TED) in the UK public procurement process.
UK buyers who previously published OJEU notices on TED will now do that on Find a Tender. Notices published before this change are still on TED.
The Cabinet Office published Procurement Policy Note 08/20 - Introduction of Find a Tender, setting out the changes to procurement which came into effect at the end of the Transition Period.
Find a Tender can be used to search for high-value opportunities or awarded contracts across the UK.
Information on contracts over £10,000 (or £25,000 outside central government) can be found on:
- Contracts Finder for England and other non-devolved parts of the UK
- Public Contracts Scotland for Scotland
- Sell2Wales for Wales
- eSourcing NI and eTendersNI for Northern Ireland
