DWP, in short
Who does DWP award contracts to?
Across 43 contracts recorded since 2021, DWP has used 32 different suppliers. The most frequent are Whitehall TV Services Ltd (5 contracts), Broadbean Technology Limited (3 contracts), CapGemini UK PLC (2 contracts).
What does DWP buy?
Its most active procurement categories are IT services, software and information systems, communications and broadcast equipment. Categories are derived from the CPV codes published on each award notice.
When do DWP contracts come up for renewal?
20 contracts awarded by DWP have an end date within the next 18 months, the earliest on 8 Feb 2027. End dates come from the original award notices, so they are visible well before any re-tender is advertised.
How much does DWP spend on contracts?
The median published contract value is £600k, across the 43 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 DWP tenders?
Tender Radar monitors Find a Tender, Contracts Finder, Public Contracts Scotland and Sell2Wales each weekday morning and can score every new DWP 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.
- 11 contracts end in the next 6 months: Published end dates between 8 November 2026 and 8 May 2027, each contract counted once.
- Took on 31 new suppliers in the last 12 months: Suppliers named on a contract it awarded and published since 9 November 2025, and on none before. Counted by organisation, not by spelling.
- Most recent award: recorded 27 Oct 2026 (12 days ago).
- 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.
