GCF introduces new Procurement Specific Questionnaire

The Government Commercial Function (GCF) has unveiled a new Procurement Specific Questionnaire as part of its Procurement Pathway service. This questionnaire is designed to replace the Standard Selection Questionnaire previously used under the Public Contracts Regulations 2015 (PCR). The new tool aims to streamline the procurement process by enabling contracting authorities to obtain core supplier information from a central digital platform, along with additional exclusions, debarment information, and details relating to conditions of participation. The questionnaire is applicable across various stages of the procurement process, including business need definition, finalising and publishing procurement packs, supplier engagement, selection and clarification and due diligence. This development represents a significant update to the UK's procurement procedures, potentially simplifying and enhancing the efficiency of the supplier selection process.
