About the buyer

South Kesteven District Council is a local authority based in Grantham, Lincolnshire, and runs procurement as a tiered quotation and tender process. Contracts above the council's tender threshold are advertised on Contracts Finder and Find a Tender. Suppliers register and submit bids through the Proactis portal. Welland Procurement, a shared service with Melton Borough Council, manages contracts on the council's behalf above the tender threshold. Tenders comply with the Procurement Act 2023, in force since February 2025. No approved supplier list operates, and a public contract register lists live agreements for suppliers to review.

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 South Kesteven District Council's contract awards have been in construction work, architectural and engineering services and transport equipment.
