Official UK procurement-notice service
Where each one fits
Find a Tender
Find a Tender is the official place where UK public-sector buyers publish procurement and contract notices that suppliers can search and apply for.
- Searching official procurement notices.
- Checking buyer-published notice details.
- Monitoring high-value public procurement opportunities.
TenderReader
TenderReader does not publish official notices. It helps suppliers read the pack after they find an opportunity, then decide whether the work fits.
- Summarising uploaded tender packs with source evidence.
- Spotting deadline, eligibility, and pricing-shape risks.
- Creating an internal decision brief before bid-writing time is spent.
Decision boundary
What this page does not claim
- TenderReader is decision support, not an official procurement system.
- TenderReader does not replace checking the source notice or buyer portal.
- Suppliers should still apply through the buyer's required portal.
