With the Procurement Act only recently implemented, buyers and suppliers will still have questions about how to use the new regulations effectively and compliantly.

This Insight Zone provides an opportunity to refresh your understanding of what the Act sets out to achieve and what the changes mean in practice. It covers the key areas of buyer routes to market (including early market engagement) and crucial themes such as supplier and contract management, early experiences of the Competitive Flexible Procedure and the role of the Central Digital Platform.

Looking wider, there are also insights on the National Procurement Policy Statement, the Procurement Review Unit, application of the Act within areas such as health and defence and below threshold procurement.
