Procurement software for local government.
Local government procures across social care, highways, waste, IT, construction and professional services, under the Procurement Act 2023, best-value duties and strict transparency rules. eSourcingData gives local government teams one source-to-contract platform with automated transparency, social value tracking and a defensible audit trail.
Procurement software built for local government
Local government carries the widest category spread in the public sector, from adult social care and highways to waste, IT and construction, and all of it now runs under the Procurement Act 2023. eSourcingData supports PA23 open and competitive flexible procedures above threshold, and contract procedure rules for below-threshold spend, so authorities run everything in one platform with a defensible audit trail.
Transparency is a legal duty. Contracts over the transparency threshold must be published, PA23 introduces notices across the whole lifecycle, and section 100 rules govern access to decision papers. The platform automates publication to Contracts Finder and Find a Tender and records the PA23 notices, so publishing obligations and openness around decisions are met without manual chasing.
Best value and social value run through everything local government buys. eSourcingData lets teams weight social value at evaluation and track delivered commitments across the contract, giving members and residents evidence that spend delivers local outcomes as well as value for money, while the contract register keeps renewals and expiries under control.
