Tribal has become widely recognised as the leader in collaborative procurement across multiple organisations, with extensive experience in improving procurement in the public sector.
We understand the importance of delivering short-term financial savings, as well as setting realistic objectives for long-term procurement improvement.
We support local authorities in their procurement and supply chain processes and recognise the need to gain efficiencies whilst delivering the best possible front-line services.
We offer a range of services including:
- developing and implementing procurement strategies
- supplier and expenditure analysis
- market research
- consideration of service delivery models and subsequent procurement in line with national and EU guidelines as well as best practice identified by the Chartered Institute of Purchasing & Supply.
By gaining stakeholder support and engagement during periods of constant change, we strike the right balance between front-line policy change and delivery, and the implementation of collaborative procurement.
We are supporting our clients with some of the largest partnering initiatives in the UK, including Building Schools for the Future, the NHS hospitals building programme and housing stock transfers.
Our clients include both first and second tier authorities, regional government and corsortia.
Our procurement team has first hand experience of working in multi-disciplinary teams within the public sector and understand the nuances in developing and implementing procurement strategies and plans for public bodies.
Our unique and proven ROAD methodology concentrates on the planning and preparation phases mandated by OGC and the 4Ps to ensure the purchasing organisation approaches the market as a truly ‘Intelligent Customer’ with full knowledge of its requirements and the ability of suppliers to deliver them.
We bring experience in commissioning and the audit of the processes and procedures involved, which has enabled us to help deliver quality services whilst ensuring value for money.
