The Provision of Vehicle Tyres and Associated Services

About the buyer

Halton Borough Council buys as a local authority, publishing contract opportunities on The Chest e-procurement portal. Registration on The Chest is free, and larger contracts also appear on the national Find a Tender service. The council complies with the Procurement Act 2023, current legislation for public contracts. From April 2026 suppliers need a Public Procurement Organisation Number, registered through the Find a Tender platform. Suppliers can also opt into alerts for similar opportunities from local authorities across the North West. Procurement queries go through a dedicated council mailbox rather than a general enquiries line.

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 Halton Borough Council's contract awards have been in transport services, health and social work and construction work.
