Broaden your horizons and source new business opportunities from within the public sector - a stable and reliable marketplace with an annual spend of £175 billion per annum.
There are a vast number of public sector organisations throughout the UK. Local government alone covers every area, the Ministry of Defence (MoD) has over 200 establishments across the country, there are hundreds of NHS trusts and government departments such as HM Revenue and Customs with offices nationwide. Colleges and universities are to be found in many towns and cities, as are social services and countless numbers of non-departmental public bodies. All of which potentially have requirements for virtually every possible product and service, including those of your business.
As a small business, it is imperative that you have visibility of government contract opportunities; however, simply tracking down available contracts is a challenge in itself. Under EU rules all public sector contracts worth typically £100,000 or more must be advertised in the Official Journal of the European Union (OJEU), however, below this threshold, contract notices could appear in a host of places, including websites, trade journals, the national press or local newspapers.
