About the buyer

Lower-value work runs through PCS Quick Quote, while larger contracts move to PCS-Tender. Dynamic purchasing systems and procured services arrangements keep routes open for ongoing sourcing, particularly in social care. A two-year procurement plan sets out upcoming opportunities each year. No approved supplier list exists, so any business can bid.
Over the past 5 years, most of South Lanarkshire Council's contract awards have been in IT services, health and social work and education and training.
