About the buyer

Leicestershire County Council buys as a local authority, advertising larger contracts on the government's Find a Tender service. Smaller contracts appear separately on Contracts Finder, the portal for lower-value public work. Some contracts also run through frameworks set up by outside bodies, including ESPO, and suppliers apply to join those directly. The council itself trades nationally as ESPO, running framework agreements for public bodies nationwide. A two-year procurement plan on the council's open data site lists contracts still to come. Suppliers must also register on Find a Tender, a requirement since April 2026.

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 Leicestershire County Council's contract awards have been in transport services, construction work and architectural and engineering services.
