Government Procurement Service
Government Procurement Service, an executive agency of the Cabinet Office, is the delivery arm of Government Procurement. Our overall priority is to provide procurement savings for central government, health and organisations across the UK public sector. Our main focus is to deliver these savings through expert sourcing, category and centralised data management.
By centralising, standardising and aggregating spend on common goods and services we deliver significant, sustainable cost reductions to Government, through the provision of the Government eMarketplace. The Government eMarketplace is delivered on behalf of Government Procurement by the Centre of Excellence and powered by technology provided by ProcServe.
The Government eMarketplace, including the Dynamic Marketplace brings together a suite of electronic procurement tools that will enable Departments to access the centrally managed contracts and transact as necessary. It also offers Departments the opportunity to get quick quotes for low value services (below £100,000), making it easier for them to engage with suppliers, especially SMEs.
Cardiff and Vale University Health Board is delighted to have completed the pilot successfully on behalf of NHS Wales; and their knowledge and expertise over the last 10 years will further enhance and develop the xchangewales service. NHS Wales recognises the need more than ever for ‘technology to take the strain’ in delivering greater efficiencies and innovation through collaboration, best practice and more sourcing of goods and services nationally across the Public Sector in Wales.
