About the buyer

Gateshead Council buys as a local authority procuring goods, works and services for the borough. Suppliers register on Open, the shared e-procurement platform NEPO runs for its 12 member councils across the North East. Current tendering opportunities and the council's full contracts register both sit inside Open. Larger contracts are advertised through the Government's Central Digital Platform, the enhanced successor to Find a Tender. Many goods and materials contracts run as framework agreements lasting a fixed term before renewal. Gateshead Council is migrating its existing frameworks and dynamic purchasing systems onto Open.

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