Information, Guidance and Support

To support implementation, the Cabinet Office has created a dedicated supplier information page which includes guidance on all stages in the procurement process. For example, there are ‘Knowledge Drops’ explaining changes on how to register as a supplier on Find a Tender. This can sometimes be referred to as the Central Digital Platform.

You should review the guidance alongside the Procurement Act 2023 Knowledge Drop for Contracting Authorities Northern Ireland. This highlights some exemptions or differences to the main rules in the act for contracting authorities in Northern Ireland.
