The Office of Government Procurement (OGP) has published its Target Schedule of Contracts and Frameworks Q3 2016 which indicates the timescales for implementing public tendering frameworks and contracts, by industry sector and procurement category.
Each of the eight OGP-run categories

3. Utilities
4. Information and Communication Technology and Office Equipment
5. Marketing, Print and Stationery
