One connected workspace
for procurement and contracts.
AWARE brings procurement, supplier engagement, evaluation, contract records and reporting together in one governed workspace, with LGCA’s practical support alongside it.
It is modular. Your organisation selects the capabilities and assistance it needs, starting small and adding intelligence, training or specialist support as required, rather than taking on an inflexible enterprise package.
- Plan Capture the need, scope, pathway, governance, risks and approvals before going to market.
- Source Run a controlled market engagement: invitations, clarifications, submissions, evaluation and award evidence.
- Manage Carry the contract into obligations, milestones, performance, variations and close-out.
For councils and other buyers
AWARE supports procurement teams with:
- One governed workspace for procurements, contracts, suppliers and reporting
- Proportionate pathways, from straightforward purchases to structured quotations and tenders
- Evaluation with an agreed basis, authorised evaluators and an auditable decision trail
- Contract obligations, milestones, performance and changes kept visible after award
- A home view of assigned work, active procurements, expiring contracts and risk
- Your organisation keeps its delegations, approvals, evaluation responsibilities and final decisions
For suppliers
AWARE gives suppliers to local government:
- Register once, free of charge, and keep your profile, categories and evidence current
- Be found by councils searching the categories you work in
- Receive invitations, clarifications and addenda through one channel
- Respond through a structured, secure submission process
- Contact LGCA’s team for access and registration queries
Registration is free for suppliers. It does not guarantee invitations or contract awards.
