Working With Suppliers and Contractors

We work with a variety of suppliers, contractors and consultants to provide our services. These range from small local businesses to large national organisations. We encourage applications from local suppliers and minority groups.

We do not currently operate any approved supplier lists. Suppliers are encouraged to sign up to the Delta eSourcing portal which we may use to investigate potential suppliers for quotes and tenders.

Where applicable, we purchase through pre-arranged framework agreements made available for housing associations and/or other public funded bodies.

All other tender opportunities for requirements not available through current contract or framework agreements are advertised through Contracts Finder or Find a Tender - sites provided by Government for suppliers to find opportunities across the public sector:

See our Key Procurement Policies page for a table showing the contracts values for when each website is used.
