About the buyer

The Crown Estate is a central government body that manages the seabed, rural land and a central London property portfolio. Procurement opportunities are advertised through Find a Tender, the government's central digital platform, where suppliers must hold an account to see them. Contracts follow the Procurement Act 2023 and the wider public contract regulations, with guidance on transforming public procurement. A minimum 10% weighting on social value applies to every tender. Suppliers register through the organisation's own supplier portal to manage account and certificate details. Three divisions, Marine, Property & Places and Land, each commission work across their own portfolios.

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

Over the past 5 years, most of The Crown Estate's contract awards have been in architectural and engineering services, business services and construction work.
