Maidstone Borough Council's Procurement Department works hard to maintain the “excellent” Authority status awarded by the CPA. Within this team of procurement champions, this “excellent” status is vigorously guarded through providing best value to the procurement process and to the Council as a whole, by taking advantage of significant spending power in order to drive down costs and increase efficiencies through procurement strategies that provide real added value internally and externally.
