Implementing the Procurement Act 2023 through targeted training and governance alignment.
The client
Islington & Shoreditch Housing Association (ISHA) is a community-driven housing association with a strong commitment to delivering quality, affordable homes in North and East London. Managing over 2,500 homes, ISHA plays a vital role in creating safe, sustainable housing for its residents.
Services provided
The project
ISHA commissioned FFT to deliver Procurement Act 2023 training following updates to its procurement policy and financial regulations.
Our role
We delivered a focused, in-person training session for the leadership team, explaining the key principles, procedures and practical implications of the new legislation.
The challenges
The client needed clarity on a complex legislative change and how it translated into day-to-day procurement and governance.
Added value
We aligned training directly to ISHA’s updated policy framework, ensuring consistency between governance, compliance and operational practice.
The outcome
ISHA’s leadership team now has a clearer understanding of Procurement Act 2023 requirements, enabling more confident and compliant procurement decisions.
Dealing with Karen and Lee on the procurement policy was easy, as they were approachable and handled many of the issues we raised.
