Procurement support
We have many years' practical experience with public procurement processes, including crucial technology projects, PFI and Gateway reviews at all levels.
Our people know and understand the opportunities and pitfalls in:
- European procurement rules and OJEU processes
- Off-catalogue and framework agreements
- Gateway Reviews (as both reviewers and reviewed)
- Shared Services at all levels - including developing user consortia and joint outsourcing arrangements
- Procurement strategy for major services and supplies
- Feasibility studies and implementation for large-scale outsourcing of public services and back office
- Supply contracts and negotiation processes
- Legal aspects (cutting expensive legal costs)
- Sub-contracting and supply consortia
- Deployment of e-Procurement processes
- TUPE and staff transfer issues
- OGC/Intellect Concept Viability to testing prospective technology procurements before commitment.
