Supplying the South West - Contracts and Opprtunities Portal
The South West contract and opportunities portal 'Supplying The South West' and aims to help councils and suppliers work together.
For suppliers this regional portal gives a one-stop shop window on contract opportunities from a growing number of councils in the South West. Even without registering, suppliers can use the portal to look for information about existing contracts and new opportunities.
Suppliers can register free of charge, and can
- post a company profile, indicating what sorts of opportunity they are interested in
- receive email notifications whenever opportunities matching their profile become available
- register an expression of interest in a published opportunity and request contract documentation to be sent.
Participating Councils currently include Bath & North East Somerset, Bournemouth Borough Council, Gloucestershire County Council and South Gloucestershire Council but we anticipate many more councils in the South West will join in the near future.
Local authorities interested in posting contracts and opportunities on the portal should contact Gillian Brindle g.brindle@dorsetcc.gov.uk

Several County and Unitary Authorities in the South West have set up their own web-based Contract Management Systems that include Contract Registers, Opportunity Registers, Contract Management Systems and e-Tendering capability. Other authorities are moving in this direction and expect to have made some progress in the near future.
