Transport spends approximately $12 billion each year across the cluster, and we need to look for ways to drive better value from this spend. The Joint Procurement Savings initiative will deliver improved financial and customer outcomes by more effectively managing our procurement spend. Through the Joint Procurement Savings initiative, we will manage the entire procurement lifecycle to leverage our buying power as One Transport organisation.

The story
In the past …
Transport has historically procured goods and services by agency. This means we are not looking for opportunities to leverage our collective buying power as One Transport organisation. We don’t always get the best value for our spend, and we don’t consider how spend can be best utilised across Transport.
Then something happened …
As part of the NSW Procurement Whole of Government program to help us be smarter in the way we spend taxpayer’s money, Transport introduces a cluster wide approach to procurement. We identify and deliver solutions to ensure we are more joined up in the way we procure goods and services. We start taking a more commercial approach to our procurement spend. Transport also delivers training and tools to increase the overall capability of our business to consider the total spend and impact of procurement activities.
So now …
Transport is now spending our resources wisely and getting the best value from every dollar spent. We are also ensuring we leverage our spend cluster wide, which delivers more value for our customers.
