About the buyer

Barnsley Metropolitan Borough Council is the local authority for Barnsley and advertises every tender and quote opportunity on YORtender. That portal is shared with a further 26 contracting authorities across Yorkshire and the Humber, so one free registration covers them all. Larger opportunities are also advertised on the Find a Tender service. The council is a founder member of the Yorkshire Purchasing Organisation, alongside 12 fellow local authorities in the north of England. A procurement pipeline covering the next 12 to 18 months is refreshed at least every six months. Social value is measured and reported using the National TOMs framework.

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 Barnsley Metropolitan Borough Council's contract awards have been in construction work, health and social work and business services.
