In conversation: Transforming procurement | Video series

As part of Hugh James’ Housing Week, our lawyers are collaborating with other key figures in the sector to explore the issues it faces. Emily Powell, Partner in our Commercial Team, is joined by Duncan Spokes, Head of Strategic Procurement at Fusion 21, who has worked with the housing sector for many years including providers such as Paradigm Housing Group, Clarion and Onward Homes. In this conversation, Emily and Duncan address the imminent reforms to procurement, the inherent tension between striving for new flexibility whilst also enhancing transparency and provide their practical advice for anyone managing a contract in housing, the public and private sectors.
