Division 45 is construction work — the largest CPV division by value in UK public procurement. It spans new build, refurbishment, civil engineering, highways, demolition and specialist trades (roofing, M&E installation, scaffolding) across codes 45100000–45500000.
London concentrates more public procurement than any other UK region: 33 boroughs (32 plus the City of London), the Greater London Authority family (TfL, MPS, London Fire Brigade), some of the country's largest NHS trusts and integrated care boards, plus universities and central-government departments headquartered in the capital. Boroughs collaborate heavily — shared services, joint frameworks and pan-London DPS arrangements are common, so one contract can serve several boroughs.
Notices are aggregated from Contracts Finder, Find a Tender, the devolved-nation portals and 400+ council procurement sites, then summarised in plain English. Suppliers working in London use the chart below to gauge how active this category is month-to-month, and the list to find live opportunities to bid on.

What does CPV code 45000000 cover?
Division 45 is construction work — the largest CPV division by value in UK public procurement. It spans new build, refurbishment, civil engineering, highways, demolition and specialist trades (roofing, M&E installation, scaffolding) across codes 45100000–45500000.
How do I win Construction work contracts in London?
Get positioned on the frameworks and DPS lists your target clients actually use (check their previous awards to see which), because mid-value works rarely reach the open market. Bids are scored on social value (typically 10–20%), site-specific methodology and programme credibility rather than lowest price; for sub-£500k lots, local SMEs genuinely win if they evidence relevant completed jobs with referee contacts, CHAS/Constructionline accreditation and realistic prelims. Most boroughs advertise through the CapitalEsourcing portal or ProContract as well as Contracts Finder, and many require London Living Wage commitments as a scored or mandatory element. Responsible Procurement is formal GLA policy — expect social value, air-quality (ULEZ-compliant fleet) and local-employment questions in almost every evaluation.
