The regulations amend the main threshold values in Schedule 1 of the Procurement Act 2023 to keep them in line with the thresholds set out in the World Trade Organisation's Agreement on Government Procurement (GPA), which are updated every two years.
Our Procurement Manager - Projects, Tracy Shepherd's advises; "The majority of the thresholds are reducing, meaning that contracting authorities should revisit their planned procurement's to check whether the reduced thresholds result in a contract being considered a 'public contract' for the purposes of the Procurement Act 2023."
The threshold changes and difference from the current thresholds are as follows. All thresholds are inclusive of VAT.
Works contract (not a utilities, defence and security or light-touch contract)
From £5,372,609, to £5,193,000
Contract for the supply of goods, services or works to a central government authority
From £139,688, to £135,018
Contract for the supply of goods, services or works to a sub-central government authority
From £214,904, to £207,720
