Crown Commercial Service, in short

How these figures are worked out

• The last 12 months: award notices published from 8 November 2025 to 7 November 2026, each contract counted once however many suppliers or rows it has. The same window is used everywhere on this page.
• Year on year: Its published contract awards rose, then fell in the last year. Contracts by publication date in the 12 months to 7 Nov 2026 and the two years before it, oldest first: 306, 359 and 154. A change of more than 15% counts as a rise or fall; each year needs at least 5 contracts.
• 98 contracts end in the next 6 months: Published end dates between 7 November 2026 and 7 May 2027, each contract counted once.
• Has published 8 planned procurements: Pipeline notices on Find a Tender whose expected tender date is still to come, or passed in the last 30 days.
• Has awarded contracts every year since 2021: At least one contract in every calendar year from 2021 to 2026, by award date (or publication date where the award date is later). Our records begin in 2021.
• Took on 1,982 new suppliers in the last 12 months: Suppliers named on a contract it awarded and published since 8 November 2025, and on none before. Counted by organisation, not by spelling.
• Most recent award: recorded 28 Apr 2026 (6 months ago).
• Values: value figures cover the 1,455 of 1,478 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 7 November 2026, when this page was built.
