Procurement Systems

Systems available to find a supplier

Contract Information System (CIS)
The Leeds City Council CIS system. This is an online database which holds details of all contracted suppliers. This is schools first resource for identifying existing contracts. For procurements schools can use these corporate contracts and alleviate the need to obtain 3 quotes or publish an advertisement on SCMS
For instructions on how to self-register on the CIS please click here
