Working together with the full support and involvement of staff, we will provide benefit to Councils and their stakeholders through improved levels of service, reduced costs, improved efficiency and/or increased value through innovation.

These will be achieved primarily through:

• Joint Procurement
  Being the procurement of services or products by two or more Councils from an external provider regardless of whether the service is paid for through BOPLASS or individually by participating Councils. 
   
• Shared Services
  Being the participation of two or more Councils in the provision of a common service which may be jointly or severally hosted.
