Buyers for the Scottish Public Sector will now be fully aware of the Scottish Public Procurement Reform Programme. Procurement Scotland has the remit and funding to engage in national contracting for category A commodities for the Scottish Public sector, with all current activities detailed in the National Strategies & Contracts section.
As new category A national contracts and non-contract national strategies come on-line through the collaborative sourcing activity of Procurement Scotland, all buying organisations across the Scottish public sector are encouraged to use them and realise cashable savings and non-cashable benefits.
To access more detailed information on current national contracts and how to buy off them
please contact ps-enquiries@scotland.gsi.gov.uk.
