An introduction to
procurement
Strategic Procurement Unit
provides an advisory service for Works, Supplies and Services
Contracts let by the Council.
Our guidance has a number of
different aims:
- Provide the business community, including suppliers of goods,
works or services, with an explanation of how and why we procure
what we need
- Enable the business community to gain greater access to us for
the purpose of selling goods, works and services
- Encourage businesses to compete for our contracts
- Give you as much information as you need to get started in
doing business with us and explain what we buy and the way we buy
them, as well as offering advice on our procurement
process.
