Procurement support


We have many years' practical experience with large and small public procurement processes, including crucial technology projects, PFI and Gateway reviews at all levels.

We know and understand:

  • European procurement rules and the different OJEU processes
  • Off-catalogue and framework agreements (and the pitfalls)
  • Gateway Reviews (as both reviewers and reviewed)
  • Shared Services at all levels - including developing user consortia and joint outsourcing arrangements
  • Supply contracts and negotiation processes
  • Legal aspects (cutting expensive legal time in procurement)
  • Issues and opportunities around procurements involving sub-contracting and supply consortia
  • The OGC/Intellect Concept Viability service, testing the practicality of technology procurements before commitment.
