Local Government

In recent times, local authorities have faced frequently changing circumstances and evolving demands on their services, and 2019 looks set to be no different. This is why at PSS we want to empower the people behind public service transformation to deliver smarter, more efficient public services despite a challenging environment of budget constraints, political uncertainty and an ever-growing population.

As the UK’s leading, two-day public sector event, PSS is the meeting place for local authority senior management, service delivery experts and local government procurement and commissioning teams to come together to share best practice, learn the latest policy developments and discover the innovative solutions driving efficiencies in the public sector from 2019 and beyond.

“A very well organised event with a good choice of case studies and a way to meet new suppliers in an informal setting. There has clearly been a lot of effort into planning and organising this event.”Principal Procurement Officer - Derbyshire County Council

“An innovative event for the Public Sector - great use of technology to make this interactive and interesting, and it gave attendees a vast array of sessions to suit all needs.”Head of Gateway & Residents Service Development - Croydon Council
