Technology for Reform
Public sector procurement has never been more important - in today's tough economic climate, procurement managers need to ensure that public purchasing delivers value for money and contributes to the Scottish economy.
Taken together, Public Contracts Scotland, the Scottish Procurement Information Hub, and the Best Practice Indicators form a comprehensive package of technology which will assist public sector procurement teams to engage in the reform process, strategically plan improvements and demonstrate progress, efficiency and best practice.
The Cabinet Secretary for Finance and Sustainable Growth, along with his colleagues on the Public Procurement Reform Board, expects to see public bodies use these technologies and actively seek to continuously improve their performance and share best practice with others. Updates on participation with and outputs from each of the projects are tabled at every Delivery Group and Reform Board meeting.
Details on how procurement teams can access and use the technologies are available at the following links:
