Built on official UK transparency data
Buyer & spend intelligence
PSIP shows you what a UK public sector buyer actually spends, which suppliers they pay, and, for buyers we cover, how much a contract’s incumbent has been paid — built from the official spending data councils and government departments are required to publish. So you can target the right buyers and size up the competition before a tender is ever advertised.
Buyer and spend intelligence from £199/month.

What you can see
Three angles on the same public spending data — buyer, incumbent, and supplier.
Buyer spend profiles
For a covered body: how much it spends, which suppliers it pays most, and where its money actually goes — so you approach buyers who spend on what you do.
Incumbent payment history
On an opportunity, see the current supplier and what they have been paid — total, number of payments, and recent monthly run-rate — so you understand the contract before you bid.
Supplier payment tracking
Search any supplier and see the public money flowing to them across buyers, matched to the Companies House register where we can identify a registered company.
Engage before the tender
By the time a contract is advertised, the incumbent has often been talking to the buyer for months. Spend data lets you get there first: see who holds a contract, roughly what it is worth from the payment run-rate, and when it is likely to come up — then build the relationship before the notice lands.
Pre-engaged bids win far more often than cold ones. This is the data that lets you pre-engage.
Straight from the source
Every figure comes from the buyer’s own published spending data, normalised, with suppliers matched to Companies House where we can identify them — nothing estimated, nothing invented.
Coverage grows as bodies are added, and we publish exactly which bodies are included — with how current each one is — rather than claim a list that would drift.
See the full coverage list →Included on Growth and above
Buyer and spend intelligence is available on Growth (£599/mo), Professional (£1,199/mo), Bid Agency and Enterprise plans, with deeper buyer enrichment on Professional and above.

Does PSIP show public sector spending data?
Yes. PSIP aggregates the payment (transparency) data that UK councils and government bodies publish under the Local Government Transparency Code and HM Treasury spend-over-£25,000 guidance, and turns it into buyer and supplier intelligence: what a buyer spends, which suppliers they pay, and how much the incumbent on a contract has been paid. The full list of bodies covered is on the coverage page.
Which councils and departments does PSIP cover for spend?
Coverage grows as bodies are added and is disclosed in full — every covered body, its data range and how current it is — on the PSIP coverage page. It spans central government departments and a growing set of local authorities. Rather than claim a fixed list here that would drift, we keep the list on the coverage page, rebuilt every six hours.
Can I see who currently holds a government contract?
Where the buyer publishes the relevant payment data, yes. On an opportunity, PSIP shows the incumbent supplier and their payment history — how much they have been paid, over how many payments, and the recent monthly run-rate — so you can gauge the size of the contract and the incumbent's position before you decide to bid.
Where does PSIP's spend data come from?
From the buyers themselves. UK public bodies are required to publish their spending, and PSIP ingests those official publications, normalises the inconsistent formats, and matches suppliers to the Companies House register where it can identify a registered company. Every figure traces back to a source publication — nothing is estimated or invented.
How is this different from enterprise market-intelligence tools?
Public sector spend intelligence has often come with enterprise tools. PSIP offers it from £199/month, self-serve, monthly, cancel anytime — alongside tender discovery, AI scoring and bid drafting in the same platform.
