S1552 - THE PROVISION OF WATER HYGIENE MANAGEMENT AT CORPORATE AND EDUCATIONAL BUILDINGS WITHIN SALFORD

About the buyer

Salford City Council is a Greater Manchester local authority that runs procurement through its own dedicated commercial team. Contract opportunities are advertised on The Chest, the north west's shared local authority procurement portal. Suppliers register free on The Chest to receive email alerts for the specific contract areas that interest them. Larger tenders also appear on the Find a Tender Service and Contracts Finder. Since February 2025 the Procurement Act 2023 has required suppliers to register on the Central Digital Platform. A procurement strategy covering 2023 to 2027 sets out the council's sourcing priorities.

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 Salford City Council's contract awards have been in construction work, software and information systems and business services.
