GCHQ purchases a wide range of goods and services. Wherever possible these are procured from pre-existing GCHQ Framework Arrangements and other approved Framework Arrangements such as the Office of Government Commerce Catalist Framework. These Framework Arrangements meet a high proportion of GCHQ's purchasing needs.
Where GCHQ is to purchase goods and services by placing a new separate contract and where security considerations allow it is our intention to advertise such purchases on our
procurement opportunities page.
All suppliers invited to tender for advertised requirements will need to undergo stringent financial and capability checks and, in some instances if successful, be able to provide staff with appropriate security clearances and operate from secure premises.
Sustainable Procurement
In line with Government Policy GCHQ aspires to procure in a way that achieves value for money on a whole life basis in terms of generating benefits not only to the organisation, but also to society and the economy, whilst minimising damage to the environment.
