About Kent County Council
Kent County Council is the local authority for Kent, and advertises its tenders through the Kent Business Portal. Opportunities above a set value threshold appear there, and each listing carries a summary, key dates and the contract period. Suppliers register on the portal before expressing interest in an opportunity. The council follows a fully auditable process that complies with public procurement legislation. Unsuccessful bidders can request feedback on their submission once a decision is made. The Commercial Strategy for 2026 to 2028 aims to simplify procurement processes and engage Kent-based businesses, SMEs and VCSEs early.
UK local government drives £140bn in annual procurement, led by social protection (£66.6bn) and education (£57.1bn).
Over the past 5 years, most of Kent County Council's contract awards have been in construction work, health and social work and business services.
