About the buyer
City of Doncaster Council is the local authority for Doncaster, and its Strategic Procurement Team leads the council's buying. Every procurement exercise is advertised on YORtender, the council's web-based tendering portal. Registered suppliers can set alerts by CPV code and receive a notification whenever the council publishes a relevant tender. Much of this procurement also flows through third-party frameworks let by national consortia such as YPO, CCS and ESPO. Suppliers awarded a larger contract must be registered on the Central Digital Platform, formerly the Find a Tender Service. A Local Supplier Directory helps council staff find local firms for below-threshold purchases and quotes.
