At the heart of Transforming Government Procurement is the need for a strong, coordinated and expert body of procurement professionals. This event heralds the creation of a reformed Government Procurement Service through which procurement practitioners can establish a coordinated and cohesive function, with the necessary access to expertise for it to gain the support and recognition it needs. Critically, this event provides you with the opportunity to help to shape the reformed GPS.  Take a place at one of the decision-making tables that will define how you and your fellow procurement professionals are represented in the future.
