About the buyer

Suffolk County Council is a local authority procuring under the Procurement Act 2023. Suppliers find and bid for its opportunities through Suffolk Sourcing, a portal it has shared with Suffolk's district and borough councils since 2010.

Dynamic purchasing systems cover Adult and Community Learning and Passenger Transport Services, open to new suppliers at any time. From April 2026, suppliers awarded below-threshold contracts must register on the Central Digital Platform. Suppliers are also expected to add value to the local economy, the Suffolk pound.

Over the past 5 years, most of Suffolk County Council's contract awards have been in transport services, education and training and health and social work.
