Why public-sector contracts

How government contracts help you grow

Public buyers spend at scale, pay on set terms and award work that can run for years. Here is what that can mean for your sales and cashflow.

02 Cashflow

Paid on set terms, often for years

Invoice Within 30 days Paid

Every public contract carries an implied term that a valid, undisputed invoice is paid within 30 days. Frameworks can run for up to 4 years as standard, so one award can mean repeat revenue you can plan around.

Sources: Procurement Act 2023, s.68 implied payment terms and s.47 frameworks: maximum term (legislation.gov.uk). Exceptions apply, for example concession contracts and contracts awarded by schools.
