Procurement Strategy
The University of Strathclyde is committed to maximising value for money in all of its transactions, and, in conducting its daily business, staff will consider the University’s wider responsibilities in terms of legal, moral, social, economic and environmental impact. Effective procurement will support the University’s Innovation Strategy and Strategic Plan.
The Procurement Strategy sets out the strategic institutional approach to procurement within a challenging economic, legislative and regulatory environment, including support for University policies. The statements within section 5, demonstrate how the University will deliver the requirements of the Procurement Reform (Scotland) Act 2014.
The Action Plan element of the Strategy translates the strategic objectives, into the detailed actions and processes required to maintain a cost-effective University procurement operation. The action plan has been updated to incorporate the actions that have been taken towards fulfilling the objectives of the strategy and action plan.
