About the buyer

Bromsgrove District Council is a local authority for the Bromsgrove district in Worcestershire, and lists its contract opportunities through an e-tendering portal. That portal, Due North Sourcing Solutions, lets suppliers register and submit tender responses electronically. Redditch Borough Council shares standard terms and conditions with Bromsgrove for supplying goods and services. Sourcing often runs through frameworks such as YPO, ESPO and the Crown Commercial Service. Fusion 21, LHC, EEM Ltd and PFH also feature among its framework routes. A rolling procurement pipeline sets out contracts due for retender over coming months.

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 Bromsgrove District Council's contract awards have been in business services, transport equipment and software and information systems.
