  »   Contract strategy
  »   Supplier evaluation and selection
  »   Supplier improvement

Additional information on relevant tools and techniques can be found under Purchasing Services.

ACUITY's services are structured to take into account relevant strategic, technical and commercial issues. We are experienced in dealing with the implications of Tranfer of Undertakings and Protection of Employment (TUPE) legislation, and in minimising the impact of any ongoing liability after employees have transferred to the new contractor.
