Procurement Advice Session

Zoom

ESPO are delighted to host a short session to Worcs CALC and WALC members, to discuss procurement and how their services can be of benefit to our member councils. For those of you less familiar with ESPO, ESPO are a public sector procurement organisation who work on a not for commercial profit basis. They are owned by a consortium of local authorities (including Warwickshire) with any surplus made, being returned back to the public purse.
The session will be designed to give a short overview of ESPO as an organisation and their core services including how their catalogue and procurement frameworks may be of help to our members as a way of saving money and ensuring compliance with the UK procurement regulations. It will not be a sales pitch. The session will be designed as an information exchange which will provide a better understanding of how ESPO can support your individual and collective requirements.
