Achieving excellent value for money and working with as many local suppliers as possible are our main aims.

Our purchasing philosophy is to purchase jointly with Suffolk Constabulary, whilst taking into account issues such as quality, delivery, price competitiveness, service levels, environmental policies, terms and conditions, and the supplier's approach towards diversity and equality.

Within the EU Directives and Public Contracts legislation that we have to adhere to, we constantly try to identify and encourage new local sources of supply to help us in our aim. We are keen to work with local suppliers and we try to make access to us as easy as possible for small and medium sized businesses. Rather than being a one-way street, the aim is for a true partnership with benefits to both parties.

If you are interested in supplying Norfolk and Suffolk Constabularies, please read our 'Procurement Guide for Suppliers and Contractors'. This explains the way in which our purchasing activities work within the legal constraints upon us. All tendering opportunities are advertised on www.Bluelight.gov.uk. Registration on this website is free of charge and it is used by other police and emergency service providers throughout the UK as well as Norfolk and Suffolk.
