Crawley: contracts, suppliers and what is coming next.
Crawley is a district council in the South East. We hold 77 of its award notices, 14 contracts due to end within 18 months, and 3 committee papers from the last 120 days that talk about buying. Everything here comes from public records: award notices the council itself published, and the papers it publishes before each committee meeting.
Data updated: 20 September 2026 (committee papers) | 18 September 2026 (award notices)
GovLeads reads Crawley's papers every weeknight. A value is published on 62 of those 77 award notices, so the total is a floor, not the council's spend.
Next committee meetings
The next 5 scheduled meetings at Crawley, taken from the council's own calendar. Papers usually appear five clear working days beforehand, and we read them the night they land.

Biggest suppliers
Ranked by total awarded value across every Crawley award notice we hold. Values on multi-supplier frameworks are shared across the suppliers named on them, so a place on a large framework does not inflate a single firm.
| Supplier | Awarded value | Awards |
|---|---|---|
| Npower Commercial Gas Limited | £5.7m | 1 |
| Idverde Limited | £5.2m | 2 |
| Civica Election Services Limited | £4.2m | 3 |
| Totalenergies Gas & Power Limited | £3.0m | 1 |
| ITS Technology Group Limited | £1.0m | 2 |
Largest awards of the last 12 months
The biggest awards Crawley has notified in the last year. Awards sharing a title and end date are collapsed into a single row, so a framework or dynamic purchasing system appears once rather than once per supplier.
| Award | Supplier | Value | Route |
|---|---|---|---|
| Further Competition for Crawley Play Areas - Multi Site Tender under ESPO framework No 115 | Proludic Ltd | £434,057 | Framework call-off |
| Crawley Borough Council Insurance Cover for Commercial Property | Travelers Insurance Company Limited | £402,698 | DPS call-off |

How the money is awarded
45% of Crawley's awarded value went through open competition and 3% was awarded directly. Directly awarded work is the part of the market that never reaches a competitive notice, so it is the part you have to see coming upstream.
- Framework/DPS 47% (£14.7m)
- Competed 45% (£14.1m)
- Other/Unspecified 5% (£1.6m)
- Direct 3% (£961,176)
Contracts expiring within 18 months
The 5 largest by value on record for Crawley, of those with an end date inside 18 months. A re-procurement decision normally reaches a committee months before the contract itself runs out, which is the point at which scope is still moveable, so the months-left column matters as much as the value.
| Ends | Months left | Contract | Supplier | Value |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 31 Mar 2027 | 6 | Crawley BC and Horsham DC - Tree Maintenance and Inspection Services Contract - AWARD | idverde Ltd | £5.2m |

Procurement radar
Committee papers Crawley published in the last four months whose title uses the language of buying: a tender, an award, an extension, a gateway report, a waiver, or a procurement strategy, policy or performance report. It is a title match, so the odd paper lands here on a word rather than a decision.
| Meeting | Paper | Committee |
|---|---|---|
| 24 Jun 2026 | Forward Programme of Key Procurements July – December 2026The forward plan identifies the Council’s key procurements over a contract value of £500k that will require tendering over the coming six-month period. | Cabinet |
| 30 Jul 2026 | Draft Scoping FrameworkReason The Petition Tilgate Park War Memorial, was considered by the Overview and Scrutiny Commission on 6 October 2025 and then Cabinet on 8 October 2025. | Support for Armed Forces Scrutiny Panel |

Where Crawley spends most
The service areas taking the largest share of awarded value here. Each one has its own page explaining what we watch for.
Where this comes from
Awards, suppliers and expiry dates come from award notices published to Contracts Finder and Find a Tender by Crawley. The award data set was last refreshed on 18 September 2026, so notices published since then are not yet counted here. Values are as notified; where a notice names several suppliers, the value is shared across them.
Committee papers and meeting dates come from Crawley's own published papers, at https://democracy.crawley.gov.uk. Every paper linked above is on the council's own site. Committee-paper figures were extracted on 20 September 2026.
What we leave out. A notice naming more than one buying authority is excluded, because it does not say how the value splits between them. So are notices from bodies that share this council's name but are separate organisations, such as the local college or NHS trust. Both would otherwise be counted here as Crawley's.
Nothing on this page is modelled, estimated or inferred. Every number is a count or a sum over those two public sources. Where a figure would be a guess, it is left out.
