About the buyer

Some recurring works, including civil engineering, run through multi-year framework agreements. Recent competitions have covered highway improvements, community regeneration and minor works contracts.

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 Newry Mourne and Down District Council's contract awards have been in recreation, culture and sport, education and training, and construction work.
