The statement only mentions engagement with suppliers where under a case study of an office relocation, "Procurement engaged a specialist consultant to oversee the tender process and scope the moves, with an emphasis on achieving the relocations within the timescale,while ensuring that the people involved in the moves were appropriately trained, supervised and remunerated. Procurement were particularly concerned that the selected supplier did not attempt to reduce the required manpower, so that any removal team members could be compelled into unpaid overtime, or physical risk through under-resourcing the teams. The supplier also had to ensure that all staff working in the teams were not paid less than the Living Wage. The selected supplier demonstrated a clear understanding of the requirements so that the resource model for the task was both appropriate and fit for purpose, with adequate contingency to ensure a successful relocation within the timeframe and that requisite skillsets were appropriately paid."
