This is Framework Watch for the week of 2026-07-20: the framework agreements and dynamic markets newly advertised on UK public procurement notice feeds this week, still open for bids at the time of writing. It is a recurring feature, published every week to the same rule each time, so bidders can treat it as a standing check of what has opened.

What it means

A framework listing here is an invitation to bid for a PLACE on a framework or dynamic market, not a contract in itself: winning a place is the first of two stages before any call-off work follows (see our guide on how frameworks and call-offs work). Value, where stated, is the buyer's own estimate of the framework's ceiling, not a guaranteed spend.

Method

Computed once a week, from notices published between 2026-07-20 and 2026-07-26 (the notice publication date), drawn from the UK public procurement notice feeds. DETECTION RULE: the notice data has no structured field marking a notice as a framework or dynamic market (checked against the schema and the normalisation layer before building this feature), so opportunities are identified by matching the notice title against the words 'framework', 'framework agreement', 'dynamic purchasing system', 'DPS' and 'dynamic market'. This is a heuristic: a framework competition whose title does not use one of those words is missed, and it is scoped to notices of type 'tender' (open opportunities) with no deadline yet passed. 47 matching notices were found in the window; the table above shows the top 25 by value. Where the same buyer advertised the same competition through more than one notice release in the window (4 such re-releases), only the most recent release is listed.
