Doing business with us
Welcome to the Allerdale Borough Council pages on how
to do business with the Council.
The Council spends approximately £17
million each year with external companies providing a
range of commercial opportunities.
We buy goods, services and works from a wide range of
suppliers and service providers. Contracts can range from small,
one-off purchases up to multi-million pound service contracts
lasting several years.
The Doing Business with the Council guide, available to download below, has been
produced to explain how to go about trading with Allerdale Borough
Council. It is intended to enable you to feel
confident in approaching the Council and maximise your opportunity
to gain Council business.
There is a great deal of competition for the
Council's contracts and this guide
cannot assure individual businesses of success. However, it should
provide sufficient information to allow businesses to present their
products or services in compliance with our purchasing
processes.
