Helping your company win public sector business
For businesses to survive and prosper in an economic downturn, it is essential that they maximise all avenues of potential revenue and additional business, a factor particularly relevant to those who are part of the small to medium-sized enterprise (SME) community.
The Supply National SME Engagement Programme will raise awareness amongst SMEs of how the broad range of public sector organisations procure goods and services, providing vital information and resources in order to build their knowledge and increase their chances of winning public sector business.
Through a series of Workshops, Information Sessions and Meet the Buyer events, this carefully designed Engagement Programme will put your business at the heart of an industry that spends over £175bn a year on goods and services. To maximise the benefits for companies across the UK, separate events will be held in each region, giving you the perfect opportunity to attend an event near you.
Designed to complement the current public sector initiatives which clearly highlight the need to improve competitiveness among SMEs in the UK when tendering for public contracts, the overall objective of the Engagement Programme is to establish a closer relationship between buyers and suppliers in order to allow UK businesses to increase their understanding of the public sector and increase their potential for winning public sector tenders.
The Supply National SME Engagement Programme will help imbed tools, techniques and procedures within your business, allowing you to utilise these skills in order to move your business forward and become more competitive in a crowded marketplace.
This series of tailored events will assist owners, executives, managers and other senior staff in the SME community to develop the skills necessary to explore public sector
procurement opportunities, providing them with a competitive edge that no other programme of events can offer.
