About the buyer

Department for Transport (DfT) is a central government department, with commercial work spanning road, rail, aviation and maritime transport across the United Kingdom. The Group Commercial Directorate leads procurement for DfT from Great Minster House. Every opportunity DfT runs directly is advertised on Contracts Finder. National Highways, HS2 Ltd and Network Rail each run their own separate procurement as arm's-length bodies of DfT. The Driver and Vehicle Licensing Agency, the Driver and Vehicle Standards Agency and the Maritime and Coastguard Agency also buy separately. Suppliers to DfT are paid on 90% of undisputed invoices under its prompt payment commitment.

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

Over the past 5 years, most of DfT's contract awards have been in business services, architectural and engineering services and research and development.
