Buying pattern
Department of Health & Social Care has published 10 notices that we hold between 20 Aug 2026 and 19 Oct 2026, most often in Healthcare & Pharma (3). Half of its notices give bidders 14 days or less between publication and the deadline, so a supplier who checks weekly will see almost every one in time. The usual procedure is the rfi.
