These stakeholders include local authorities, national organisations and government departments. The indicators are designed to help English local authorities with the implementation of the National Procurement Strategy for Local Government that was launched in October 2003. It is hoped that with suitable adjustment, the indicators will be useful to colleagues in other parts of the public sector.
This set of indicators is particularly useful for:
