Ofcom tenders and contracts
Today there are 2 open Ofcom tenders on Find a Tender. It has 52 contracts running that we know of, and 5 of them are recurring services ending in the next 3 to 12 months, so they'll probably be tendered again.

Compiled by Winnable from published notices. End dates we've worked out from a contract's length say "around"; none of these figures are Ofcom's own.
Ofcom publishes its tender documents on ofcom.bravosolution.co.uk, the buyer's own site (usually free to register).
