Procurement at Companies House
Supplying goods and services to Companies House.
Doing business with Companies House
We use an online supplier portal provided by Atamis to run compliant procurement processes. You can register with the supplier portal to participate in tender opportunities.
We buy most of our goods and services through frameworks such as those set up by the Crown Commercial Service. Find out about becoming a supplier on a Crown Commercial Service framework agreement.
For higher value or more complex work we use a formal tendering process directly to the market. We decide the most beneficial tender by considering things like:
- cost
- quality
- delivery
- environmental impact
We publish open tender opportunities on Find a Tender. This is in accordance with the Procurement Act 2023. You’ll need to register as a supplier on Find a Tender and complete your supplier information to be able to bid for contracts. Find out more about how to register with Find a Tender.
We publish pipelines of planned procurement activities for contracts with an estimated value of over £2 million. This is to give suppliers information about our future requirements and support forward planning.
For simple purchases under £12,000 (including VAT) we use a quotation procedure. We award business through an official purchase order.
