RISQS roadshows 2024
The purpose of the roadshows will be for both buyers and suppliers to learn more about the new procurement regulations and how they will affect both the scheme and their business, as well as hear about the new RISQS portal that will be launched this summer.
We will also be offering pre-arranged meetings with RISQS colleagues, including scheme managers and auditors, to help answer any questions you may have.
There will be a standard agenda for each roadshow, which is as follows:
