The Awarding Authority spends over #380million every year on goods and services from external suppliers. This Procurement Strategy lays down the Awarding Authority?s priorities and approach for achieving best value for money from our procurement over the next three years. With increasing financial constraints, and the need to get more for less, improved procurement is high on the agenda, both for the Awarding Authority and for local government nationally. Excellence in Procurement can not only achieve significant savings and efficiencies, but also contributes to achievement of the Awarding Authority?s social objectives. The Awarding Authority is now a 4-star authority, and effective procurement is essential in supporting the Council as it continues to improve strongly. We work with companies of different sizes to buy goods and services. It is essential that we protect public money by purchasing in the most efficient way.
