Cabinet office minister Francis Maude is set to announce a raft of new procurement trials at the Government Construction Summit next week, 好色先生TV understands.

Maude is expected to give a full update of progress on the Government Construction Strategy, launched at the end of May last year, which is thought to include a number of additional pilots of new forms of procurement.

Currently there are 37 trial projects under the Construction Strategy, including trials of three distinctly new forms of procurement devised by chief construction adviser Paul Morrell. Therehave been calls for more government clients to adopt Construction Strategy procurement principles, such as early contractor involvement, partnering and an open-book approach.

The government will publish a 鈥淥ne Year On鈥� report detailing progress made with implementation of the strategy so far and an updated action plan.

The government鈥檚 procurement and lean client task group, and its standards and lean supply chain task group will also publish their final reports. The procurement report is expected to fully endorse the use of frameworks to buy construction, despite the reservations of SMEs.
