Calling all suppliers - how you bid for public sector contracts will change from 28 October.

02 September 2024

Next month the public procurement regulations will undergo the biggest change we've seen in a generation. From 28 October, suppliers will need to think differently about how they bid for public sector contracts. The tenders coming out from customers will look different as well!

To help you prepare for the change, we're delivering a webinar series for suppliers in our network. We'll run through the main differences for suppliers - along with Cabinet Office guidance regarding Find a Tender Service, your suppler profile, and new considerations you'll need to make before bidding for work. We'll be running two sessions as part of a series on the changes -

19 September (13:00 until 14:00) - We'll introduce the new legislation and key differences for suppliers.
24 October (13:00 until 14:00) - With only 4 days to go until the regs go live, we'll run through the Find A Tender Service, as well as guidance on setting up your supplier profile on the new system.

To register for the series, please sign up via the form below. Once we receive your application we will send over the joining links. If you've any questions on the webinar series, please contact David Smith, Director of Strategic Partnerships - david.smith@southeastconsortium.org.uk.
