This
one-day workshop was held as part of a National e-Procurement
Project dissemination program to consider the latest research
and consider examples of the use of e-procurement technologies
to improve efficiency and drive out cost in local government collaborative
construction.
The event, which was free to delegates, was hosted by Manchester
City Council and supported by the Construction Confederation,
Construction Excellence, Constructionline and Valueworks, managers
of the GMProcure social housing group.
It
was attended by 28 delegates, representing 20 organisations from
across the supply chain, including local authorities and OGC,
housing associations, private sector contractors and e-procurement
service providers.
