Fibre Tenders
See open Fibre tenders and awarded contracts for the UK public sector.
Notices cover laying and leasing dark fibre, full fibre and gigabit broadband rollout programmes, and connecting sites such as schools, rail stations and campuses to a fibre network. Government-backed infrastructure subsidy programmes, extending fibre to areas the market would not otherwise reach, are a recurring large-scale thread.
Central government bodies, councils, universities and rail operators buy most of this work, ranging from a single site connection to a multi-year regional rollout.

How do I find fibre contracts in the UK public sector?
Search live portals for open fibre tenders, or track the bodies running regional rollout programmes, since much of this work is delivered in phases over several years. Stotles pulls notices from 100+ portals into one place.
What kinds of fibre work do public sector buyers tender for?
Dark fibre leases and full fibre network builds sit at the core, alongside gigabit broadband rollout to schools and other public sites in areas the commercial market would not otherwise reach. Connecting individual sites, such as a rail station or a university campus, to an existing fibre network is a smaller but steady stream of work.
Who buys fibre infrastructure?
Central government bodies run the largest subsidy-backed rollout programmes, extending gigabit-capable broadband to underserved areas. Councils, universities and rail operators buy at a smaller scale, typically connecting their own sites or estates to a fibre network.
What is the difference between fibre and general network or telecoms procurement?
Fibre procurement is specifically about the physical optical cable and the infrastructure it runs on, whether owned, leased or built as part of a subsidy programme. Broader network and telecoms contracts can include fibre as one component alongside routers, switches, mobile services and managed connectivity, which sit on their own pages.
