BIS said that firms will now be able to access tenders advertised on the website without having to pay a £180 annual charge. The free service would be “an interim step” toward introducing a single website for all public sector contracts in 2010.

My personal experience of using this has not been great and feedback from clients is not very positive. However, I understand that the supply2 team are helpful if you phone them and so I always recommend to clients to make contact to see if they can make the service work better for them.
I’d love to hear about your experiences – good or bad…
