Stirling Council

Stirling Council spends over £100m per year on infrastructure projects, goods and services. We publish a variety of indicators and data within our “Towards Commercial Excellence” Stirling Council’s Commissioning and Procurement Strategy 2021-2025 which includes measurements such as % spend with local suppliers and % spend with SME’s. We also publish an Annual Report as part of our obligations under the Procurement Reform (Scotland) Act 2014 which also sets out our performance and achievements.  

Continuous Improvement 

We have introduced a number of eCommerce systems such as electronic purchasing, electronic invoicing, electronic tendering to deliver efficiencies for both the council and the supply chain. 

We participate in the Procurement & Commercial Improvement Programme where we are externally assessed. This allows us to benchmark our own performance as well as comparing best practice with other public sector bodies, this has supported driving significant improvements in our approach to Commissioning and Procurement.

Stirling Council’s Procurement Strategy 2021-2025 has been developed to help us achieve our Strategic Commissioning Vision, which in turn will help Stirling Council to deliver the best possible outcomes for everyone who lives in, works in and visits the Stirling area. 

Stirling Council's Expectations from Suppliers Sustainable Tenders Stirling Council is committed to embedding sustainability, climate action, and community benefits into the way we purchase our goods, services and works. To help suppliers understand what we expect, and how to submit strong, competitive tenders, we have put together a short presentation that focusses on sustainable tenders. This content is designed to support suppliers of all sizes, whether you are new to public sector tendering or already bidding for contracts and national frameworks.
