Luton Borough Council

Procurement events

 

The council strives to support the local economy through its contracts by placing a focus on local supply chains and jobs and skills markets. We encourage the following:

  • use of local sub-contractors
  • adding local businesses to supply chains
  • addressing skills gaps
  • local recruitment
  • apprenticeships

These areas will feature prominently within our social value expectations for all future opportunities and will have a significant weighting in tender evaluations.

To support our aim, we are encouraging contractors to establish relationships with local sub-contractors and supply chains.
