Tender description

The River Severn Partnership Advanced Wireless Innovation Region (RSPAWIR) aims to encourage the adoption of advanced wireless technologies by businesses and organisations across the River Severn catchment. Monitoring the ground water levels remotely and in real-time would enable farmers to manage the peatland more effectively and, in doing so, enhance the efficiency of lowland peat to reduce carbon emissions. The RSPAWIR have identified 10 peatland fields in north Shropshire and have agreed in principle with the landowners to install ground water monitoring equipment on their land.

About the buyer

Shropshire Council is the local authority responsible for Shropshire, and buys as a local government organisation through its own dedicated procurement team. Smaller value opportunities are advertised through Contracts Finder, where supplier registration is completely free. Larger contracts are instead advertised on Find a Tender, the government's central portal for higher value public sector opportunities. Every current tendering opportunity is also published directly on the council's own website. A published commissioning and procurement strategy sets out how the council approaches buying. Social value is built into every contract the council awards.

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 Shropshire Council's contract awards have been in health and social work, food and drink and construction work.
