We advertise contracts in line with the contract procedure rules (PDF, 584.28 KB).
The procurement process is based on the value of the property contract to be let:
| Minimum quotes required | Works contract | Goods and services contract |
|---|---|---|
One | up to £25,000 | up to £25,000 |
Three | £25,000 to 500,000 | £25,000 to £100,000 |
Five | Above £500,000 to PCR threshold | Above £100,000 to PCR threshold |
For contracts over the Public Contracts 2015 threshold for goods and services (£213,477), and for works (£5,336,937), the council must follow the Public Contracts Regulations (2015). For the purposes of determining contract value for thresholds then the amount must be gross of VAT.
For quotations, officers must get at least one quote from a local supplier where practical.
All quotations and tenders should be let through our e-tendering system. By registering on London Tenders Portal, you will get access to a wide range of opportunities across the public sector.
