EVENT - Exploring the New Procurement Act

The Procurement Act is a new law that creates a new and improved set of procurement regulations. The development of the Act was prompted by the UK leaving the EU in 2020 and intends to create a simpler, more flexible, commercial system that better meets the country’s needs, while remaining compliant with international obligations.

In April 2024 the Cabinet Office's announced an intended “go-live” of October 2024, but that has subsequently been delayed to late February 2025.

Our speakers are:

• John Simons, Group Procurement Director - Scape
• Louise Bennett, Senior Associate, Government and Infrastructure - Browne Jacobson

What we will cover:

• The Act and the changes for customers
• Benefits & impact
• How do we need to adapt
• Support mechanisms
• The additional Notices that will be required

Who is this relevant to?

The Act and subsequent changes are relevant to anybody involved with tendering for contracts that are publicly procured.

There will also be a Q&A session after the presentations as we know there will be a lot of questions. Plus our speakers will stay for the post networking so you can talk to them further.
