About the buyer

Glasgow City Council is a Scottish local authority that advertises its tenders through Public Contracts Scotland. Suppliers register on Public Contracts Scotland-Tender to receive alerts for opportunities matching their business. The council also publishes its live contracts and forthcoming tender opportunities in its own dedicated contract register. That register is hosted on the same Public Contracts Scotland platform for public viewing. Procurement decisions and contract standing orders are overseen by the council's Contracts and Property Committee. Glasgow is moving suppliers onto a new Supplier Portal to handle electronic invoicing for its contracts.

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 Glasgow City Council's contract awards have been in architectural and engineering services, construction work and repair and maintenance.
