Council Supplier Registration Made Easy – For Businesses of All Sizes
Discover long‑term opportunities with your local council and how to get ready to bid.
Thinking about supplying goods or services to the council but not sure where to start? This introductory session is designed specifically for businesses who aren’t yet registered on Public Contracts Scotland (PCS), businesses looking for a bit more guidance or who have never explored public sector contracts before.
The council buys from a wide range of suppliers — with ongoing demand for trades and skilled services. But before any business can bid, there are essential steps to take. This session will help you understand exactly what those are.
Join Ben Lee, Supply Chain Development Officer, for a clear and practical overview of:
- How to register on Public Contracts Scotland
- How the council procures work, awards contracts, and pays suppliers
- The minimum requirements all public contracts expect (including basic policies and documents businesses should have in place)
- How to set up your business to be ready to bid — even if you’re not ready today
- How to find future opportunities and navigate the PCS system
- Long‑term opportunities and the types of work the council regularly seeks suppliers for
- How Ben can support you throughout the preparation and registration process
This is a beginner‑friendly, no‑jargon session aimed at helping small businesses understand whether public sector work could be a new income stream for you.
If you’re curious about council contracts but haven’t taken the first step yet, this event will give you the confidence, clarity, and support to get started.
