Tenders appear on Ofgem's own tendering portal, alongside Contracts Finder and the Find a Tender Service.

Ofgem then runs a further competition or awards work directly to a supplier on the relevant lot. Lots span gas and electricity engineering, distributed energy resources, and economic and financial advice. Smaller businesses are encouraged to bid, with technical ability weighed alongside value for money.

Procurement spend from central entities makes up 66% of overall UK public spend.

Over the past 5 years, most of Ofgem's contract awards have been in business services, software and information systems, and IT services.
