Understand our transparency arrangements and how we share information.

While London & Partners is not a public body, we recognise the importance of being accountable for how we spend public money. 

Our transparency arrangements ensure we provide full and relevant information about value for money, and enable us to run as a commercial arms-length organisation.

Following a public consultation in early 2019, we have developed a new transparency policy which sets out additional measures to demonstrate how we spend public funds and make decisions.

Procurement

We adhere to current public procurement laws, including the Public Contract Regulations 2015 (PCR 2015), and follow the guidance of Procurement Policy Notes (PPN) issued by the Cabinet Office.

Where we carry out any public procurement exercises, notifications of tenders and contracts of more than £150k can be found via the government's Contracts Finder and Find a Tender services.

We publish new tender opportunities and contract notices via our procurement platform partner E-Delta, which is connected to the above government portals.

Our people

The success of London & Partners depends on our people. We aim to reward and recognise staff fairly, to be transparent and strive to create a high-performing environment, where everyone has an equal chance to succeed.

Consultation on London & Partners' transparency policy

In 2019, we undertook a public consultation which set out proposals to adopt increased levels of transparency to demonstrate how we spend public funds, make decisions and the outcomes and beneficiaries of our work.
