Supply chain resilience and diversity: SPPN 9/2020
October 7, 2020 by Niamh Duncan No Comments | Category Procurement legislation, Procurement news, Scottish Procurement
We have issued a new Scottish Procurement Policy Note (SPPN) 9/2020.
This policy note reminds public bodies of practical steps that should be taken to support supply chains and help reduce the risk of disruption to supplies caused by supply chain vulnerabilities and surges in demand.
It also includes information on a range of procurement initiatives and a range of business support activity underway across Scotland to support supplier development.
