Access the national advertising portal for all contracting opportunities across the Scottish public sector. This portal, launched in 2008, aims to ensure that public money is being spent wisely and that all procurement activities are obtaining the most economically advantageous solutions from suppliers.

This information source and procurement portal has been set up by the Welsh Government with the aim of helping businesses win contracts with the public sector across Wales where Public Sector buyers advertise and manage tender opportunities and businesses promote their services.

Direct access to the Electronic Tendering site which allows supplying organisations to take part in tender opportunities led by Northern Ireland Public Sector and Regulated Contracting Authorities, through which all procurement is channelled. Information on tenders for NI is also available at: https://etendersni.gov.uk/epps/home.do

When no established framework agreement exists, the procurement policy is to advertise all opportunities via Contracts Finder where the value of the procurement opportunity is above £12,000 and Find a Tender service (FTS) where the value of the procurement opportunity is above procurement thresholds
