About the buyer

University of Stirling is a higher education institution whose Procurement Services team sits inside the Finance Office. Tenders are advertised through the Public Contracts Scotland portal, alongside contract award notices. Lower-value purchases go through direct quotation processes rather than a full tender. Framework agreements with APUC, the Association of Procurement for Universities in Scotland, cover much of what the university buys. Scottish government and Crown Commercial Service frameworks are also used across faculties and professional services. Appointed suppliers must meet the APUC Code of Conduct and the university's own terms and conditions of purchase.

Education procurement reached £47.4bn in 2024/25, the fourth-largest public sector budget.

Over the past 5 years, most of University of Stirling's contract awards have been in health and social work, textiles, plastics and rubber and agricultural and horticultural services.
