How to bid for public sector health and social care contracts
- Check CQC registration. In England, providers of regulated health and care activities register with the Care Quality Commission, and the CQC says you must have a DBS check before you apply for registration. Source: Registration with the Care Quality Commission (CQC).
- Know which rules apply. The Health Care Services (Provider Selection Regime) Regulations 2023 came into force on 1 January 2024 and apply in England only. They set separate rules for how relevant authorities choose providers of some health care services. Source: Health Care Services (Provider Selection Regime) Regulations 2023, regulation 1.
- Register on Find a Tender first. Under the Procurement Act 2023 notices are published on the central digital platform, and buyers must get confirmation that you have registered and submitted your core supplier information before you take part in a procurement. Source: Guidance: Central Digital Platform and Publication of Information (GOV.UK).
- Look for lots. Before publishing a tender notice, a buyer must consider whether the contract could be split into lots, and give reasons if it isn't. Lots can bring part of a large contract within reach of a smaller business. Source: Procurement Act 2023, section 18: duty to consider lots.
- Know your payment rights. Most public contracts include an implied term that undisputed valid invoices are paid within 30 days (exceptions include contracts awarded by schools and concession contracts). Source: Procurement Act 2023, section 68: implied payment terms.
- Go/no-go before you write. Read the full notice and documents, check you can meet the conditions of participation and the deadline, and walk away from poor fits. Our free go/no-go checklist helps. Source: Procurement Act 2023 guidance (GOV.UK).
FAQ
Are all NHS contracts advertised as tenders?
Not always. In England, some health care services are arranged under the Health Care Services (Provider Selection Regime) Regulations 2023, which have their own rules. This page lists notices published on Find a Tender and Contracts Finder with a deadline still to come.
Where are public sector health and social care contracts advertised?
In England, Wales and Northern Ireland most are published on Find a Tender (the central digital platform under the Procurement Act 2023) and lower-value ones also on Contracts Finder. Scottish buyers mainly use Public Contracts Scotland, and Welsh buyers also use Sell2Wales. This page lists health and social care notices from Find a Tender and Contracts Finder only.
How up to date is this list?
The data was last refreshed on 25 October 2026. It covers notices published or updated in the 45 days before that, with a response deadline still to come when the page was built. We refresh it weekly. Always check the official notice: it is the only authoritative version.
Can you guarantee I will win a contract?
No. No one honestly can. Most bids do not win. We show you open opportunities and, if you want, help you decide which are worth bidding for.
