Tender Gazette Editorial Desk

The Editorial Desk edits Tender Gazette and reviews every story before publication. It produces the guides series on selling to the public sector and provides review for the site's data-assisted reporting, under the rules set out in our editorial standards. Full details on the Editorial Desk author page.

Tender Gazette Data Desk

The Data Desk is our automated reporting system. It drafts data stories from official procurement notices, and every figure, date and organisation name is verified mechanically against the source notice before anything is published; a story that fails verification does not run. Policy and analysis pieces are always approved one at a time by the Editorial Desk. Routine, notice-derived data stories that pass every mechanical check may publish under standing approval rules instead, capped at a small number a day, and the byline says so plainly rather than naming a reviewing editor. The full rules are in our editorial standards.
