Event Summary

The Procurement Act will radically change the way supplies, services and works are procured for the public sector. With the Act predicted to come into force in early 2024, Westminster Insight’s timely Conference will help contracting authorities prepare for the forthcoming changes to ensure effective delivery.

Attend to hear about procurement professionals’ preparations from across the public sector including central and local government, housing, health and social care and police and crime commissioners. Learn how to update policies and processes, systems and people to ensure a smooth transition to take advantage of the new regime.

Put your questions to our expert lawyer who will outline the key changes you need to know about the new system to mitigate risks and ensure compliance.

The Procurement Act changes are core to the delivery of the Government’s social, sustainability and transparency agenda. You will explore best practice in promoting better value for money, public benefit, transparency and integrity.
