We begin by conducting a comprehensive review of your current procurement policies and guidance. This initial step allows us to gain a deep understanding of your Council’s specific context, challenges, and objectives. Armed with this knowledge, we are better equipped to develop updated procurement strategy and policies, ensuring they are not only compliant but also optimised for your unique environment.

While compliance with existing laws and frameworks is crucial, our goal is to deliver strategies and policies that do more. We strive to develop procurement frameworks that are practical, user-friendly, and designed with the end-user in mind. This approach not only meets regulatory requirements but also enhances the efficiency and effectiveness of your procurement operations, enabling better decision-making and outcomes.

Central to our strategy development process is the consideration of the Plan, Source, Manage Procurement Framework. This framework sets out the principles and guidelines that ensure procurement activities are conducted in a fair, ethical, and transparent manner, promoting value for money and boosting the economy. By aligning your procurement policies with this framework, we help ensure they are not just compliant, but also conducive to achieving your strategic objectives and operational requirements.

An integral part of our policy and strategy development process is stakeholder engagement. We believe that the best outcomes are achieved through collaboration. By involving relevant stakeholders in the development process, we ensure that the resulting policies and strategies are not only comprehensive but also embraced by those who will be implementing them. This collaborative approach facilitates smoother adoption and implementation, driving positive change across your organisation.
