Following the exit from the EU, the UK’s Crown Commercial Service established its own version of the EU’s Tenders Electronic Daily. It is used to publish the same type of above-threshold public procurement notices, but only for the UK.
Many of the most professional suppliers to the public sector in the UK have found that Tenderlake is a great alternative to Crown Commercial Service’s Find a Tender portal.
The most-cited reasons for why Tenderlake is a great alternative to Find a Tender are:
-
Tenderlake has all public procurement notices (tenders) in the UK.
Where Find a Tender only contains the above-threshold notices, Tenderlake includes notices (including lower-value tenders) from England, Scotland, Sell2Wales, Northern Ireland, NHS, Ministry of Defence (MOD) and many other sources.
Having all public sector tenders in one place is just a lot more convenient, but it also saves time. Not switching between multiple portals is a huge time-saver.
-
Find more relevant public sector procurements to bid for.
Compared to Find a Tender, Tenderlake’s has a superior ability to identify relevant public procurements.
