Contract Management – Guidance

Effective Contract Management is vital, it  can achieve positive outcomes by developing and improving the contract and supplier performance for the benefit of the council.

We have created a Contract Management Guide to help contract managers deliver value for money and fulfil statutory obligations, irrespective of contract size or the levels of risk associated with the contract.

If you have any questions about contract management, please contact the Procurement Team.
