About the buyer

Oldham Metropolitan Borough Council is the local authority for the Oldham metropolitan borough, advertising contracts through The Chest procurement portal. Larger tenders also appear on the government's Find a Tender service. Procurements follow the Procurement Act 2023, using open or competitive flexible procedures. Contracts below threshold follow a lighter regulatory regime. Many tenders carry social value requirements covering employment, environment and community wellbeing. Healthcare-related procurements follow the NHS Provider Selection Regime where it applies. Invoices need a valid purchase order under the council's no purchase order, no pay policy.

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 Oldham Metropolitan Borough Council's contract awards have been in health and social work, construction work and software and information systems.
