About the buyer

University of Reading buys through a category management approach, with category managers responsible for different areas of spend. Framework agreements from the Government Commercial Agency and consortia such as SUPC and TUCO cover much of what the university buys. Responsible procurement standards also guide how suppliers are selected and assessed. The university's own procurement policy sets out these requirements for every contract.

Over the past 5 years, most of University of Reading's contract awards have been in laboratory and precision equipment, IT services and software and information systems.
