In April 2018, Scotland Excel reached a significant milestone. As the Centre of Procurement Expertise for the local government sector, we are proud to have been supporting Scotland’s councils for 10 years. We have grown to become a key player in Scotland’s public procurement landscape, shaping innovation in collaborative procurement and leading practice within our sector. Over 10 years, our national contracts have helped to develop and shape supply chains, creating many opportunities for Scottish SMEs and the third sector. Community benefits embedded in our contracts have delivered work experience, jobs and apprenticeships. In fact, everything we do is shaped by our commitment to delivering better outcomes for Scotland, its communities and its people. 54 | Shared Vision, Shared Success. Our Corporate Strategy 2018–2023
