Tendering for Government Contracts
What are the benefits to you?
Public-sector organisations are good customers. They have to be fair, honest and professional in the way they choose suppliers and in any dealings with them. Most are also long-standing, stable customers, and have to pay promptly and in line with agreed contract terms. Public-sector organisations have to pay accounts within 30 days (or any other agreed credit period) of receiving a valid bill or invoice. You will find more information on prompt payment law later in this guide.
You may also find that trading successfully with the public sector can give added credibility with private-sector customers.
