About the buyer

Durham is one of twelve north-east councils sourcing goods and services through the North East Procurement Organisation. Specialist professional services can be sourced through the Bloom NEPRO framework across nineteen categories. The council also procures on behalf of additional public bodies beyond Durham itself.
