About the buyer

Devon County Council runs local government services across Devon, and buys as a local authority through procurement specialists based across its eight directorates. Every contract opportunity is advertised on the Supplying the South West Portal, shared with councils and organisations across the region. The council is also a member of the Devon and Cornwall Procurement Partnership, alongside district councils, colleges and NHS services in the region. Social care and health providers work with a separate Provider Engagement Network and Market Management Team. Prospective providers meet that team to discuss proposals before any contract is issued.

Over the past 5 years, most of Devon County Council's contract awards have been in construction work, transport services and health and social work.
