Outsourcing Contracts and Tenders

Search live portals for outsourcing tenders, or move earlier by tracking the buyers who publish them. On Stotles you can filter by buyer, stage and CPV code, and read the documents behind a live procurement before it closes. Platform-wide, 2,144 tenders are open right now across every category Stotles tracks.

Public sector buyers use the term for three fairly distinct things: business process outsourcing such as payroll, HR administration, recruitment processing and customer services; clinical outsourcing, where an NHS trust buys in surgery, pathology or imaging capacity from a private provider to clear a backlog; and IT outsourcing, where infrastructure, service desk or network support passes to a single supplier under a long-term deal. All three sit inside the 534 notices Stotles has tracked for this topic to date.

Business services (CPV 79000000) matches 37 notices alongside the keyword filter, and health services (CPV 85100000) matches 25, reflecting how much of this category is clinical capacity bought in from private providers. IT services, consulting, software development and internet support (CPV 72000000) matches 83.

Often. Nationally, 44% of suppliers say frameworks are their main route into public sector work, and outsourcing is one of the categories where that shows up: Crown Commercial Service's Outsourced Services framework and several NHS and local authority business process outsourcing agreements turn up repeatedly in the corpus alongside one-off, single-supplier deals.

534 outsourcing notices to date, made up of 242 awarded contracts, 75 at pre-tender or early market-engagement stage, and the rest open or closed for bids. New notices are added continuously as buyers publish, so return to this page rather than relying on a single search.
