I Care won 5 of its 51 public contract awards in United Kingdom without a rival from 2021-04-08 to 2025-04-30: 1 without a competition and 4 after a competition that drew a single bid. 2 buyers awarded it without a rival, the largest Cardiff City Council with 4.

An award is uncontested when the buyer had no rival offer to weigh: it was made without a competition (direct award, negotiated procedure without a call for tenders, sole-source or advance-notice contract), or a competition was held and only one bid arrived. Every count below is built award by award from the official notices. Awards to individuals are not included.

Every uncontested award in United Kingdom · All countries

Source: Find a Tender Service and Contracts Finder, Cabinet Office, in the Open Contracting Data Standard (data.open-contracting.org), Open Government Licence v3.0; an award is counted once where both services publish it. Awards are matched to their buyer and supplier as published. Values in these notices often state a framework ceiling rather than a contract amount, so awards are counted, not summed.
