IT, software and web contracts, open now.

IT, software and web contracts are a good fit for small studios and specialist developers: new websites for colleges and museums, digital services, data analysis and dashboards, penetration testing and software support. Software buys go in too, up to £250,000, because larger licence deals are usually resellers' work.

In the 90 days to 14 October 2026, about 53 notices a month in IT, software and web were plausible for a micro firm (Bidlark's count). Many ask for Cyber Essentials or Cyber Essentials Plus, and some for ISO 27001; Bidlark says which, and whether you hold it, before you open the tender pack.

Notices that are really about hardware or on-site support are left out. Below are the open notices in the field, newest first, with links to the official pages.
