The Welsh Government are seeking views on the draft Wales Procurement Policy Statement (WPPS) and draft integrated impact assessment (IIA).
This consultation provides an important opportunity for businesses to comment on the strategic direction for public procurement in Wales. Public procurement in Wales represents more than £11 billion of expenditure each year and plays an important role in delivering wider economic, social, environmental and cultural outcomes. The draft WPPS seeks to ensure public procurement supports Welsh Government priorities, including those set out in the Programme for Government, while helping maximise the value generated through public expenditure in Wales.
This consultation seeks views not only on the proposed priority, but also on the intended outcomes, procurement levers and delivery framework set out in the draft WPPS. The Welsh Government want to know whether these proposals are clear, practical and capable of delivering greater value for Wales.
