About Procurement Capability Reviews (PCRs)

PCRs are a central element of Transforming Government Procurement.  They will assess how far government procurement meets the demanding standards required to deliver value for money services now and in the future. Working with Departments in concert with other OGC workstreams and HM Treasury, the reviews will drive improvements in procurement capability where the greatest impact can be achieved.
