Working with us - how to tender for contracts
Interested in doing business with the council?
We use a wide range of contracted suppliers to deliver
services across the borough. To find opportunities for
existing and new suppliers you need to
register to at:
The Chest:
Information for suppliers
There is no charge to register with The Chest
and it offers suppliers the following benefits:
- Receive emails on all relevant contract
opportunities for not only Rochdale but a number of other
authorities across the North West and the rest of England.
- Contract opportunities and information
available at any time and any place through internet access.
- Reduced tender timescales through the use of
electronic communication.

Alternative ways of tendering
If you can't access the internet to register
your company, please contact us for information on how to tender
without using The Chest.
Our goal is to secure best value for
money, and we are always happy to discuss our contracts and
purchasing arrangements with potential suppliers in order to
achieve this.
Sub-Contract Opportunities
After we award a contract there are often
subsequent sub-contract opportunities that you, as a supplier, may
be able to benefit from. For further information, please look at the current list of sub-contract
opportunities.
Our standards
In all dealings with suppliers and potential
suppliers, our officers will do their best to preserve the highest
standards of honesty, integrity, impartially and objectivity and to
treat all suppliers in a professional and even-handed way.
