About the buyer

North Warwickshire Borough Council is a local authority based in Atherstone, Warwickshire, with its own procurement team overseeing contracts. Tender opportunities are advertised through the CSW-JETS portal, an e-tendering system shared with Coventry, Solihull and Warwickshire authorities. Larger opportunities also appear on Contracts Finder and the wider UK government tendering service. Contract Standing Orders set out the rules procurement staff and budget holders must follow. A published Procurement Strategy provides the consistent basis for all of the council's purchasing decisions. The council also keeps a contracts register recording what it has already bought from suppliers.

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 North Warwickshire Borough Council's contract awards have been in agricultural and horticultural services.
