At the Crown Commercial Service (CCS) were responsible for:

  • increasing savings for the taxpayer by leveraging governments buying power and centralising buying requirements for common goods and services

  • providing advice and support to government departments on their most complex commercial projects

  • managing governments strategic suppliers

  • operating the legislative framework for commercial activity and leading on the development and implementation of ministerial commercial policies

For 2014-15, our priorities are to:

  • achieve the savings commitments made to customers on common goods and services and complex transactions

  • transition departmental spend on common goods and services into centralised managed service arrangements across the commercial lifecycle; market engagement through to contract and supplier management

  • transpose the new EU Procurement Directives into domestic law

  • make it easier for suppliers to do business with government and increase spend with small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) to support economic growth

  • further develop organisational capability to leverage increased savings from the spend managed for customers
