Summary, etc. Considers methods housing associations can use to improve their procurement practices. Addresses spending and efficiency, leadership and procurement skills. Recommends that housing associations proactively identify gaps in their procurement skills; use greater collection and evaluation of information; consider greater use of e-procurement tools; and involve residents to a greater degree. Central government should provide incentives to housing associations to make better informed procurement choices, and increase the scope of the National Change Agent for Housing to allow consortia to offer all types of materials and services.
