Fareham: who supplies it, and how much it awards without a contest.
Fareham is a district council in the South East. We hold 44 of its award notices, and 1 contract due to end within 18 months. 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 Fareham's papers every weeknight. A value is published on 39 of those 44 award notices, so the total is a floor, not the council's spend.

Biggest suppliers
Ranked by total awarded value across every Fareham 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 |
|---|---|---|
| Dyer and Butler | £2.1m | 1 |
| Farid Hillend Engineering Limited | £604,755 | 1 |
| Vale Southern Construction Limited | £418,677 | 1 |
| Lee Devine & Company Limited | £397,533 | 3 |
| Ramboll UK Limited | £355,542 | 2 |
Largest awards of the last 12 months
The biggest awards Fareham 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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| Legionella Management Services at 47 Council properties owned by Fareham Borough Council | WCS Group | not stated | Direct award |
| Provision of an Airport Operator for Solent Airport Daedalus | EGHF Limited | not stated | Open |
| Salterns and Monks Hill Timber Groyne Maintenance | Avon Construction Limited | not stated | Restricted |
| Warmer Homes Retrofit works using Social Housing Fund Wave 3 | LivGreen Limited | not stated | Direct award |
How the money is awarded
11% of Fareham's awarded value went through open competition and 71% 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.
- Direct 71% (£4.8m)
- Competed 11% (£745,655)
- Framework/DPS 9% (£634,991)
- Other/Unspecified 9% (£604,755)
Contracts expiring within 18 months
The largest contract by value on record for Fareham, 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 |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 Feb 2028 | 16 | Purchase and maintenance of SoloProtect IDTouch devices | Soloprotect Limited | £66,331 |
Procurement radar
Committee papers Fareham published in the last four months whose title uses the language of buying.
No procurement decision reached a committee here in the last four months. Fareham published 155 papers in that window and none of them is titled as a tender, an award, an extension or a waiver.
That is common and it is not a gap in our reading: most councils delegate day-to-day buying to officers, and only the larger decisions reach a committee with a paper to their name. The award notices above are the fuller record of what this council actually buys.

Suppliers rarely sell to one council alone. These are the authorities next door, and the ones covering the same ground at a different tier.

Where Fareham 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 Fareham. 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 Fareham's own published papers, at https://fareham.moderngov.co.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 Fareham'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.
