Corporate Procurement
Best Value
A duty of Best Value is placed on us by part 1 of the Local Government Act 1999. What and how we buy, and whether to buy-in services 'in house' are procurement decisions at the heart of Best Value.
Best Value is part of the government's agenda to modernise local government.
Best Value is one of the key drivers behind our need to secure value for money in all procurement exercises.
Our Best Value Performance Plan says we will 'Consistently deliver the best possible services to the community through effective Procurement and partnerships, taking into account whole life costing, innovation and continual improvement'.
