The Planning Inspectorate, in short
Who does The Planning Inspectorate award contracts to?
Across 34 contracts recorded since 2021, The Planning Inspectorate has used 30 different suppliers. The most frequent are XMA LImited (2 contracts), Route 101 Limited (2 contracts), Nous Group Ltd (2 contracts).
What does The Planning Inspectorate buy?
Its most active procurement categories are business and professional services, IT services, software and information systems. Categories are derived from the CPV codes published on each award notice.
When do The Planning Inspectorate contracts come up for renewal?
3 contracts awarded by The Planning Inspectorate have an end date within the next 18 months, the earliest on 21 Jan 2027. End dates come from the original award notices, so they are visible well before any re-tender is advertised.
How much does The Planning Inspectorate spend on contracts?
The median published contract value is £90k, across the 34 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 The Planning Inspectorate tenders?
Tender Radar monitors Find a Tender, Contracts Finder, Public Contracts Scotland and Sell2Wales each weekday morning and can score every new The Planning Inspectorate 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.
- 2 contracts end in the next 6 months: Published end dates between 8 November 2026 and 8 May 2027, each contract counted once.
- Has awarded contracts every year since 2022: At least one contract in every calendar year from 2022 to 2026, by award date (or publication date where the award date is later). Our records begin in 2021.
- Took on 1 new supplier 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 15 May 2026 (6 months ago).
- Since 2021: totals count contracts by award date from January 2021, and suppliers by organisation rather than by spelling.
