York and North Yorkshire Combined Authority: contracts, suppliers and what is coming next.
York and North Yorkshire Combined Authority is a combined authority in Yorkshire and the Humber. We hold 122 of its award notices, and 23 contracts due to end within 18 months. Everything here comes from public records: award notices the council itself published, and the papers it publishes before each committee meeting.
Data updated: 20 September 2026 (committee papers) | 18 September 2026 (award notices)
GovLeads reads York and North Yorkshire Combined Authority's papers every weeknight. A value is published on 109 of those 122 award notices, so the total is a floor, not the council's spend.

Biggest suppliers
Ranked by total awarded value across every York and North Yorkshire Combined Authority award notice we hold. Values on multi-supplier frameworks are shared across the suppliers named on them, so a place on a large framework does not inflate a single firm.

| Insight Direct (UK) Ltd | £2.4m | 14 |
| Lindum Group Ltd | £2.0m | 6 |

- Direct 3% (£669,143)
Contracts expiring within 18 months
The 5 largest by value on record for York and North Yorkshire Combined Authority, of those with an end date inside 18 months. A re-procurement decision normally reaches a committee months before the contract itself runs out, which is the point at which scope is still moveable, so the months-left column matters as much as the value.
| Ends | Months left | Contract | Supplier | Value |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 30 Jun 2027 | 9 | Operational Uplift Refresh of ICT Devices | Insight Direct (GB) Limited | £1.5m |
| 26 Jun 2027 | 9 | NYFRS ESTATE WORKS TERM SERVICE CONTRACT | Lindum Group Ltd | £1.3m |
| 20 Dec 2027 | 15 | VDI VMWare Licencing Agreement | Bluelight Commercial Limited | £1.0m |
| 8 Sep 2027 | 11 | Aggregated ICT Hardware Purchase Project | Insight Direct (GB) Limited | £619,227 |

Procurement radar
Committee papers York and North Yorkshire Combined Authority published in the last four months whose title uses the language of buying.
No procurement decision reached a committee here in the last four months. York and North Yorkshire Combined Authority published 140 papers in that window and none of them is titled as a tender, an award, an extension or a waiver.
That is common and it is not a gap in our reading: most councils delegate day-to-day buying to officers, and only the larger decisions reach a committee with a paper to their name. The award notices above are the fuller record of what this council actually buys.
Nearby councils
Suppliers rarely sell to one council alone. These are the authorities next door, and the ones covering the same ground at a different tier.

The service areas taking the largest share of awarded value here. Each one has its own page explaining what we watch for.
Where this comes from
Awards, suppliers and expiry dates come from award notices published to Contracts Finder and Find a Tender by York and North Yorkshire. The award data set was last refreshed on 18 September 2026, so notices published since then are not yet counted here. Values are as notified; where a notice names several suppliers, the value is shared across them.
Committee papers and meeting dates come from York and North Yorkshire Combined Authority's own published papers, at https://yorknorthyorks-ca.moderngov.co.uk. Every paper linked above is on the council's own site. Committee-paper figures were extracted on 20 September 2026.
What we leave out. A notice naming more than one buying authority is excluded, because it does not say how the value splits between them. So are notices from bodies that share this council's name but are separate organisations, such as the local college or NHS trust. Both would otherwise be counted here as York and North Yorkshire's.
Nothing on this page is modelled, estimated or inferred. Every number is a count or a sum over those two public sources. Where a figure would be a guess, it is left out.
