Description
South Kesteven District Council (SKDC) is currently looking at delivery options to support the Procurement function for the authority. As part of the lead into and preparation for potential Local Government Reorganisation, SKDC are currently reviewing all options for delivery of the Procurement function. SKDC would like to hear from any providers who can offer this function and would like information on services they can offer along with indicative pricing. The purpose of this engagement is to test market appetite, capability and delivery models for external procurement services prior to any potential future procurement. This is a stand alone, exploratory exercise only and does not form part of a formal tender process. Please note start and end dates of any future contract are only illustrative at this present time.
