Selling to the council

We spend approximately £350 million on goods, works and services each year. Most of the money we spend goes to suppliers holding contracts which have been awarded following competitive tendering, and at least half of our suppliers are Oxfordshire based.

These contracts may have been let directly by us, or by other organisations authorised to act on our behalf. We also have collaborative purchasing with Oxfordshire's district councils and other county councils.
