WCC - Insurance Claims Handling System

About the buyer

Warwickshire County Council buys as a local authority covering Warwickshire, and suppliers register free on Warwickshire In-Tend to see live tender opportunities. Framework call-offs are administered through the same In-Tend system rather than advertised separately. Larger opportunities also appear on the Central Digital Platform's Find a Tender service. Many goods and services are bought through the Eastern Shires Purchasing Organisation, a regional buying consortium. Dynamic purchasing system projects run through the council's earlier CSW-Jets In-Tend site. Bids are scored on cost and quality, and the highest-scoring bidder normally wins the contract.

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 Warwickshire County Council's contract awards have been in software and information systems, health and social work and business services.
