PUBLIC-MONEY QUESTION

Where does UK public money go?

Start with the overall Contracts Finder award picture, then move into regions, sectors, buyers and suppliers.

THE SHORT ANSWER

The held award notices can be followed through four connected lenses: who bought, who supplied, what was bought and where delivery was stated. Disclosed award values are useful signals, but they are not audited expenditure.

01

Read the measure

Notice counts, disclosed values and distinct names answer different questions. The linked report labels each one.

02

Open the slice

Move into a region, sector, buyer or supplier view without losing the filters that created it.

03

Check the record

Return to the award notice and official registers before treating a signal as a conclusion.
