UKUPC - how effective procurement gives back to our Members

UKUPC is a partnership between 8 consortia APUC, HEPCW, LUPC, NEUPC, NWUPC, SUPC, TEC and TUCO who created a formal entity to support collaborative procurement within Higher and Further Education. In the lead up to the Christmas break UKUPC ran a festive campaign all about “giving” and how effective procurement gives back to our Members.

To highlight the benefits of procurement each consortia will be focusing on a topic and the benefits achieved  by our Members in these areas. The campaign demonstrated key subjects on embedding responsible and ethical procurement, sustainable supply chain management and social value.

We hope you enjoy following the stories over the next 8 days and we wish all of our Members a Merry Christmas.
