Office for National Statistics, in short
Who does Office for National Statistics award contracts to?
Across 547 contracts recorded since 2021, Office for National Statistics has used 322 different suppliers. The most frequent are Specialist Computer Centres (SCC) PLC (21 contracts), COMPUTACENTER UK Ltd (16 contracts), INSIGHT DIRECT UK Limited (16 contracts).
What does Office for National Statistics buy?
Its most active procurement categories are software and information systems, IT services, office and computing equipment. Categories are derived from the CPV codes published on each award notice.
When do Office for National Statistics contracts come up for renewal?
114 contracts awarded by Office for National Statistics have an end date within the next 18 months, the earliest on 7 Nov 2026. End dates come from the original award notices, so they are visible well before any re-tender is advertised.
How much does Office for National Statistics spend on contracts?
The median published contract value is £75k, across the 527 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 Office for National Statistics tenders?
Tender Radar monitors Find a Tender, Contracts Finder, Public Contracts Scotland and Sell2Wales each weekday morning and can score every new Office for National Statistics notice against your organisation's profile, delivering the relevant ones before 9am alongside their contracts approaching renewal.

Same type of body. National bodies are not grouped by region: a department's notice address is where its commercial team sits, not where it works. Most published awards first.
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: 105, 150 and 119. A change of more than 15% counts as a rise or fall; each year needs at least 5 contracts.
- Most of its current contracts end in the next 12 months: 94 of its 180 contracts with an end date still to come end by 7 November 2027. Shown when that is more than half, with at least 5.
- Has published 4 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 52 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 16 Oct 2026 (3 weeks ago).
- Values: value figures cover the 527 of 547 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.
