About the buyer

The council commissions adults' and children's services with the Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea under a bi-borough arrangement. A Contract Management Framework, refreshed in November 2023, governs awarded contracts.
Over the past 5 years, most of Westminster City Council's contract awards have been in health and social work, architectural and engineering services and business services.
