Where councils decide, sector by sector.
Every council buys across all seven of these. What changes from one to the next is which committee the decision goes to, what the paper is called, and how long you get between the decision and the tender. Each page below shows the papers we catch in that sector, and what an opportunity looks like while it is still moveable.
Adult social care
Framework re-procurements, fee uplifts, market position statements and market shaping, from the cabinet report that starts them rather than the notice that ends them.
Read more →Children's services & SEND
Placement frameworks, SEND capital and sufficiency plans, home-to-school transport and early help recommissioning.
Read more →Housing & regeneration
Local Plan allocations, development partner selections, retrofit programmes, and repairs and maintenance contracts coming up for renewal.
Read more →Economic development
Growth plans, devolution and reorganisation, inward investment and skills commissioning, at combined authorities as well as councils.
Read more →Waste & environment
Collection contract re-procurements, Simpler Recycling, depot and fleet replacement, and the net zero programmes that fund them.
Read more →Transport & highways
Local Transport Plan refreshes, term maintenance renewals, bus service improvement, and active travel schemes at the business case stage.
Read more →Digital & technology
Core system replacements, cloud migrations, cyber programmes, and the AI business cases now reaching committee across local government.
Read more →Your brief does not have to be one of these. We match on what you actually sell, described in your own words, so a business that spans two sectors gets both. These pages exist because most people arrive looking for their own sector first.
