Collaboration is a key element of the Procurement team's role, whether this be working closely with departmental stakeholders to deliver their requirements within deadlines and budgets or working with colleagues at other HEIs or consortia to maximise value through aggregated spend arrangements or framework agreements. We utilise a comprehensive suite of eProcurement tools including eTendering, eRequisitioning, eMarketplace and electronic PO distribution which complement the corporate Finance system, SAP.
