The New Procurement Act
Contract Standing Orders
PA2023 webinar series
Monday 7 May 2024
12:30 – 13:15pm
All contracting authorities have Contract Standing Orders (CSOs) which provide a framework of rules for the procurement of works, goods and services. The aim of the CSOs is to promote good procurement practice, provide accountability, improve integrity and evidence value for money. It is therefore critical that CSO’s remain up to date, fully compliant with legislation and best practice. Failure to keep the CSO’s up to date could seriously affect your commercial and internal decision-making process and also result in poor accountability and a lack of transparency, which could expose your organisation and officers to a number of risks and reputational damage.
In the webinar we will discuss how CSO should be updated to meet the new requirements of the Procurement Act.

Social Value and Procurement

Thursday 15 February 2024

The challenge is how to make this come to life in the real world. Our expert guest speaker on this webinar is Gayle Monk who is a Legal Director at Anthony Collins Solicitors LLP. Gayle has a particular focus on the environmental and social benefit that can be achieved through contracts and joint ventures, from advising on achieving social value in the form of targeted recruitment and training and supply chain opportunities, to advising on zero-carbon initiatives including the current Public Sector and Social Housing Decarbonisation Schemes.
