BAA radically overhauls procurement procedures

摘要

Airport operater BAA's procurement procedures were overhauled last week in a bid to cut costs, with major projects being put out to tender rather than awarded through its frame- work of contractors.rnUnder the new system, projects of more than £25M will be procured through open tender, projects worth between £10M and £25M will be bid for by framework members and projects less than £10M in value will be allocated to framework contractors according to BAA's criteria. "BAA is looking to introduce a more efficient, fairer way of doing things," said a BAA spokesman.
