Common questions
Repair and maintenance procurement, in short
Who buys repair and maintenance in the UK public sector?
969 public sector organisations have awarded repair and maintenance contracts since 2021. The most active are Northern Housing Consortium Ltd (323 contracts), Partners Procurement Service (PPS) (276 contracts), Buckinghamshire Council (270 contracts).
How much is a typical repair and maintenance contract worth?
The median is £86k, across the 4,841 contracts of 5,030 that publish a value. A median rather than an average, because a single framework worth hundreds of millions would otherwise make the typical contract look far larger than it is.
When do repair and maintenance contracts come up for renewal?
1,019 contracts in this category have an end date inside the next 18 months. End dates are published in the original award notice, so they are visible long before any re-tender is advertised, which is usually the point at which the specification is already written.
How do I find new repair and maintenance tenders?
Notices are published across Find a Tender, Contracts Finder, Public Contracts Scotland and Sell2Wales, each with its own search. Tender Radar reads all four each weekday morning and scores new notices against your profile, alongside the contracts in this category approaching renewal.

Figures cover contract award notices published from January 2021 onward, with comprehensive coverage from 2023.
