Procurement Strategy Groups

The purpose of APUC's Procurement Strategy Groups for universities and colleges (PSG-U and PSG-C) is to:

• formulate preferred procurement strategies to inform APUC's contracting priorities;
• be the forum for agreeing changes to sector-wide procurement processes and changes to the sector procurement manual;
• form ad hoc sub-groups to work on specific initiatives; and
• appoint members for User Intelligence Groups (UIGs) and to constantly review those memberships.
