Corporate Contracts
The following page gives details of our Corporate contracts which should always be used when processing goods, service and works where available.
Advertising Contracts
When a contract opportunity is available, we can advertise in many different places:
- Local Newspapers (Including Evening Mail and Solihull Times)
- Trade Journals
- Public sector publications (including the Municipal Journal and Local Government Chronicle, contrax weekly, goopportunities)
- Supplier route to government
- Official Journal of the European Union (OJEU)
- Our website, see: Tenders available
For contracts under £50,000 we are not required to advertise - we may choose to select suppliers from an existing list.
Content: Contracts over £144,371 (for supplies and Part 'A' services) and over £3,611,319 (for works) must be advertised in the Official Journal of the European Union (OJEU) in accordance with European Procurement Directives.
Construction Contracts
When looking for Construction Companies, we use Constructionline.
Constructionline is the UK's largest register of local and national construction and construction-related services. It is managed by Capita on behalf of the Department of Trade and Industry and is used by many public sector agencies. To register companies need to provide a number of documents including financial information and references from clients. Registration costs from £90.
