How we tender
The value of a contract determines the procedures that we must follow. The value determines how many quotes we need to obtain or whether a full tender process must be entered into. The quotation process (for contracts less than £50,000) involves officers obtaining at least three competitive quotations. The full tender process (for contracts greater than £50,000) is a more formal process.
Where we advertise tenders?
We advertise our tendering opportunities relating to Suffolk County Council and Suffolk borough and district council procurements on the Suffolk Sourcing system: www.suffolksourcing.co.uk
Tender opportunities are also advertised in the Official Journal of the European Union for goods, services and works over the threshold (http://www.stedmundsbury.gov.uk/sebc/work/Buying-decisions.cfm), or Contracts Finder (www.contractsfinder.businesslink.gov.uk/?site=1000&lang=en) for tenders below the EU threshold but above £10,000.
