Alterations to EU procurement thresholds imminent
20/12/11

The financial thresholds which govern when a public works, service or supply contract should be advertised by a contracting authority in accordance with the Public Contracts Regulations 2006 (as amended) will be changing on 1 January 2012.


The new figures, all exclusive of VAT, have been converted from the fixed Euro amounts and are a slight increase on the existing thresholds. They are as follows:
 

 

   Services (£)  Supplies (£)  Works (£)
Entities listed in Schedule 1 (which includes NHS Trusts and Central Government Departments)
 113,057  113,057

 4,348,350

Other public sector contracting authorities (which includes Registered Providers)
 173,934  173,934  4,348,350

 


These new rates will apply to procurements commenced between 1 January 2012 and 31 December 2013.


Slight increases have also been made to the thresholds applicable to works covered by the Utilities Regulations and the Defence Procurement Rules.
