Procurement Act for Blue Light Suppliers - Resources & Webinar

The Procurement Act 2023 is due to go live on 28 October as the largest overhaul of procurement regulations in a generation and is mandatory for all public contracting authorities. 

It aims to bring great benefits to both the public sector and suppliers, drive innovation, deliver better outcomes and embed transparency right through the commercial lifecycle, so everyone can access procurement data and see how public money is spent.

BlueLight Commercial has been working with the Cabinet Office, on behalf of Police and Fire services with training, guidance and templates to support implementation across the sector. 

Current or future suppliers to blue light services need to prepare for this significant change.
