About the buyer

The National Audit Office scrutinises government spending on Parliament's behalf, and buys as a central body with its own Central Procurement Team. Suppliers register free on the Delta eSourcing portal to access opportunities specific to the office. Larger contracts are advertised on Find a Tender, the central platform for public sector contract notices. Registered suppliers can search live opportunities there and set email alerts for new tenders. Purchases span professional services, technology, training, facilities management and office supplies bought to support its audit work. Procurement follows UK public procurement regulations alongside the office's own internal policies.

Procurement spend from central entities makes up 66% of overall UK public spend.

Over the past 5 years, most of the National Audit Office's contract awards have been in IT services, business services and software and information systems.
