Procurement insight series - unveiling the power of the new Procurement Act 2023

Join us for a first look at the risks and opportunities under the new Procurement Act 2023.

Although the new law will not come into effect until October 2024, it is important for contracting authorities and suppliers alike to start familiarising themselves with the new rules.

Every month until the legislation comes into force, our team of Public Procurement law experts will be tackling a different topic to help you navigate through the significant changes.

In our initial overview sessions, we will explain how the new legislation will affect the way in which regulated procurements are carried out, what new flexibilities and obligations it will introduce and what new risks it might create. Amongst other things, we will discuss, changes to the principles that underlie procurement legislation, the new transparency obligations, the new procurement procedures, the debarment list, modifications to in-flight procurements, changes to the standstill period provisions and how a contract award decisions are notified as well changes to the substantive modification safe harbours.

Following the presentation there will be a Q&A session where Pinsent Masons’ expert procurement lawyers will field your questions on the Act.
