Local Supplier Development - "Trading on the Right Connections" |

The Local Supplier
Development Project aims to help businesses create effective
inter-trading relationships and to provide practical assistance
to SMEs in winning private and public sector contracts.
Finding the right supplier is crucial to any successful
organisation. The Project runs across Wales and is funded by the Welsh
Assembly Government so there is NO cost to the businesses. |
This project can help your business by:
 |
identifying local suppliers to
suit your needs
|
|
|
assisting with the preparation of tender
and bid documents |
|
|
helping businesses to work together to access
larger contracts |
|
|
providing up to date information about contracts
and business opportunities |
