The Supplier Development Programme (SDP) is a local authority partnership programme established to offer small and medium sized enterprises (SMEs) the opportunity to grow and diversify through procurement.
With a public sector spend of over £13 billion, the SDP aims to assist SMEs (small to medium sized enterprises) improve their performance in winning contracts with public sector organisations. We offer information, support, and training events to help unravel the tendering process.
As a Procurement Department we are committed to support the aims of this programme by:
- Making ourselves available at Meet the Buyers events
- Seeking and acting on feedback from suppliers
