Lincolnshire Libraries are about to begin the process of putting stock supply out to tender for the first time. As we start to write the tender document we are keen to learn from colleagues who have already completed this process.
We are particularly interested in the advantages and disadvantages of choosing a single supplier for all stock, as opposed to choosing 2 or 3 suppliers e.g. one for adult, one for junior and one for audio visual stock etc.
I appreciate that much of the work relating to tendering is confidential so if colleagues would reply directly to me at the e-mail address below all replies will be treated in confidence.
I will post a summary of the comments received on the list at a later date.
Many thanks
Don Gibbs. Resources Manager, Lincolnshire Libraries.
