Northgate Information Solutions Limited is a market leader in providing specialist software, outsourcing and information technology (IT) services to the human resources, local government, education and public safety markets.

Northgate currently employs over 12,000 employees and operates in 46 countries across 5 continents.

Northgate approached Market Dojo to repeat a pan-European Office Supplies tender that had been auctioned a few years ago.

The auction was managed very closely, making great use of the document templates and with all the suppliers registered only 30 minutes after they received the invitation.The auction was very competitive and as a result was automatically extended several times. The result was an identified saving of between 27% and 45% depending on the mix of branded versus alternative products.
