“LGA has been a proud supporter of the Local Government Procurement Expo and now, as it returns for its third year, we are delighted to confirm that we are the official main partners of the event on 28 November. As an event that brings together the local government community with the UK’s top suppliers, it’s hard to beat. For our members who have still to try LGPE, we encourage you to get involved! Not only is it a fantastic day of personal procurement training, but by attending, you will find out more on the key issues that affect all of us who work within local government in the UK”.

LGPE was definitely worth attending. The presentations focused on relevant issues, challenges and opportunities and transferred practical knowledge to help us in the public sector overcome the challenges we currently face. It also provided a great opportunity to connect with colleagues from across the country so we can continue to learn from each other by sharing good practice.

LGPE is an event any public procurement specialist should not miss, whether it is to keep abreast of changes in public sector procurement regulations, familiarize oneself with best practice or simply to network.

The most valuable thing about the show is the fact that we are now getting some really really good contacts which we never had before.

Terry Brewer

LGPE was a great event with many excellent speakers covering a wide range of topics. It really showcased the key issues that local government is having to grapple with and helped audiences with finding solutions to them.

I was delighted to have been invited to make a presentation at LGPE 2018 concerned with austerity in social care. I was not certain that there would be many people present to listen but the space was filled and the questions that followed were excellent. There is a strong and growing link between colleagues in procurement and adult social care that conferences such as this help to progress. An event I would recommend in the future.
