About the buyer

Leicester City Council buys as a local authority. Some contracts run through outside frameworks, including ESPO and the Government Commercial Agency. Suppliers apply to those bodies directly to become approved framework suppliers. Supplier selection also weighs social value, such as local job creation and environmental impact, alongside price.

Over the past 5 years, most of Leicester City Council's contract awards have been in transport services, construction work and software and information systems.
