Use the power of the internet to enhance your organisation’s ability to communicate with suppliers
aXcess helps you comply with the new UK regulations allowing public authorities to reduce their tendering timescales, by providing a fully managed, real-time online contract information service for suppliers.
aXcess further reduces the possibility of infringement cases arising over lack of advertising of low-value tenders.
The aXcess solution’s cost is based on an annual licence fee, not the number of adverts placed and therefore avoids the costs incurred placing adverts in local, national and trade publications as there is only one yearly cost to manage regardless of the number of adverts placed .
Current aXcess users are listed below. Clicking on each of the links will allow you to see how aXcess can enhance your ability to communicate your organisation’s procurement strategy.

Your Buyer Profile will act as a dynamic communication channel making suppliers
aware of changes to your buying habits, and will allow them to view possible
future tenders, current opportunities and past tenders and awards. This can
help reduce unsolicited enquiries from suppliers, thereby freeing up your procurement
department’s time.
Features include:
- Managed service with the look and feel of your website
- Easy-to-manage administrator’s Buyer Profile back office service
- Fully supported service provided by trained and experienced staff
- Conforms to EU Consolidated Procurement Directive requirements
- 24/7 access to constantly updated information for suppliers
- Real-time automatic population of contract notice data using the Project
e-notice service
Under the new EU Consolidated Procurement Directives, public sector contracting
entities providing an online Buyer Profile and using electronic methods to
create and transmit their contract announcements can reduce their tendering
timescales by as much as 12 days.
