BFI, in short
Who does BFI award contracts to?
Across 97 contracts recorded since 2021, BFI has used 96 different suppliers. The most frequent are Burns Owens Partnership Ltd (6 contracts), ALMA Economics Limited (4 contracts), DDA Public Relations Ltd (3 contracts).
What does BFI buy?
Its most active procurement categories are business and professional services, leisure, culture and sport, research and development. Categories are derived from the CPV codes published on each award notice.
When do BFI contracts come up for renewal?
8 contracts awarded by BFI have an end date within the next 18 months, the earliest on 28 Feb 2027. End dates come from the original award notices, so they are visible well before any re-tender is advertised.
How much does BFI spend on contracts?
The median published contract value is £62k, across the 91 contracts that state a value. Published values are not added up here: a framework's value is a ceiling shared by every supplier on it, and the same value is often repeated across lots, so adding them up would overstate what is spent.
How can I be alerted to new BFI tenders?
Tender Radar monitors Find a Tender, Contracts Finder, Public Contracts Scotland and Sell2Wales each weekday morning and can score every new BFI notice against your organisation's profile, delivering the relevant ones before 9am alongside their contracts approaching renewal.

How these figures are worked out
- The last 12 months: award notices published from 9 November 2025 to 8 November 2026, each contract counted once however many suppliers or rows it has. The same window is used everywhere on this page.
- Most of its current contracts end in the next 12 months: 7 of its 13 contracts with an end date still to come end by 8 November 2027. Shown when that is more than half, with at least 5.
- No award notice in the last 12 months: No award notice published since 9 November 2025 in the notices we hold.
- Most recent award: recorded 4 Aug 2025 (1 year 3 months ago).
- Values: value figures cover the 91 of 97 contracts where a value was published. Values are never added up: framework ceilings and values repeated across lots would make a total meaningless.
- Since 2021: totals count contracts by award date from January 2021, and suppliers by organisation rather than by spelling.
Sources
Contract data on this page is sourced from Find a Tender and Contracts Finder and published under the Open Government Licence v3.0. Contains public sector information licensed under that licence. Figures cover contract award notices published from January 2021 onward, with comprehensive coverage from 2023. Earlier contracts, and any award not published to Find a Tender or Contracts Finder, will not appear. Figures may lag the source portals. Relative dates (such as “in 6 days”) count from 8 November 2026, when this page was built.
