About the buyer

West Lothian Council is the local authority for West Lothian, based at the Civic Centre in Livingston. Contract opportunities are advertised on Public Contracts Scotland, the Scottish Government's procurement portal. A dedicated Corporate Procurement Unit within the council handles supplier enquiries and offers procurement guidance. Collaborative and electronic procurement routes are used alongside conventional tendering for day-to-day buying. A Contract and Supplier Management Framework tracks contracts and supplier performance through the procurement lifecycle. The council takes part in the Supplier Development Programme, offering meet-the-buyer events for businesses across Scotland.

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 West Lothian Council's contract awards have been in waste, cleaning and environmental services, construction work and transport equipment.
