It's a double win at the Scottish GO Awards 2022

We were delighted to be crowned winner of two categories at the recent Scottish GO Awards 2022.

Our energy efficiency contractors (EEC) framework and our work in community wealth building, were both recognised at the annual ceremony.

The EEC framework won the Collaborative Procurement Initiative Award while our innovative project to improve local economic growth through community wealth building, was the winner of the Supply Chain Diversity Award.

Scotland Excel Convener, Councillor John Shaw, said: “These results are fantastic and speak volumes for the collaborative work we do to deliver innovative frameworks for Scotland’s public sector, and for the value we bring to the public procurement landscape.

“The EEC framework took collaboration to a new level by reaching out beyond the existing stakeholder group to engage experts, thought leaders and policy developers, to ensure an innovative approach to contract development. This level of collaboration continued after the framework was awarded with the Energy Efficiency Conference and Expo ‘Building a Net Zero Scotland’ which took place in May this year.

“The community wealth building project was an excellent piece of work - focusing on four sample councils to help them further drive the ethos of ‘grow local’ within their local supply base. It also created a toolkit for other councils to use, to strengthen local supply chains.

“My congratulations go to all the other Scottish GO Award winners.”
