Design Tenders and Contracts
See open design tenders and awarded contracts for the UK public sector.
Design here means more than architecture. Building design teams taking projects through RIBA stages account for a large share, alongside engineering and structural design, but the corpus also carries exhibition and museum design, UX and UI design, interior design and AV media design. Architectural Tenders covers building design in depth; this page is the wider net across every discipline buyers file under design.
There are 680 design tenders and contracts on record, 327 already awarded and 49 at pre-tender stage.

Frequently asked questions
Frequently asked questions about design tenders, design contracts in the UK public sector.
What counts as a design tender?
Anything a buyer files under the word design. That includes RIBA-stage building design teams and engineering or structural design consultancy, which make up most of the volume, plus a real minority of exhibition and museum design, user experience and interface design, interior design frameworks and audio-visual media design.
Is design tenders the same as architectural tenders?
No, though they overlap. Architectural Tenders is the dedicated page for building design: RIBA-stage services, feasibility studies and lead consultant appointments. Design Tenders is broader and also picks up disciplines architectural-tenders does not target, such as exhibition design, UX/UI and interior design.
How many design tenders are open right now?
There are 3 design tenders open for bids to date, alongside 327 already awarded and 49 sitting at pre-tender stage. Platform-wide, 2,132 tenders are open across all sectors right now.
Who buys design services?
Councils and central government commission the bulk of building and public realm design work. Museums, galleries and cultural bodies buy exhibition and interpretive design. NHS trusts and housing associations buy design services as part of capital and refurbishment programmes, and digital teams across the public sector buy UX and UI design for services and websites.
