About the buyer

Suppliers register free of charge on Open before bidding for contracts. Open also carries procurement opportunities from regional local authorities across the North East. A public contracts register lists the council's live and awarded agreements for transparency. A Supplier Incentive Programme also lets registered suppliers opt into early payment on invoices.

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 Northumberland County Council's contract awards have been in construction work, software and information systems and architectural and engineering services.
