Doing business with Blue Care
The Blue Care procurement department strives to provide reliable, timely and effective Supply Management systems, services and support to its clients, Blue Care facilities, and the associated activities of Blue care.
The Blue Care Procurement Management Team is responsible for selecting and appointing suppliers of all commodities and services used by the group.
Only those suppliers who can meet our standards are appointed. These standards are continuously being developed to ensure that our suppliers:
- supply locally-made goods and produce wherever possible
- supply brands that are leaders in their markets
- have rigorous quality assurance systems
- meet all health standards requirements
- maintain a timely and efficient distribution system
- develop new products and services
- have financial integrity and stability
- follow codes of ethical practice
- have the capacity to provide high quality data analysis
Although preference is to develop longer-term partnerships with our suppliers, alternative sources of supply are continually assessed. Competitive tender processes are used to monitor the marketplace and potential suppliers. Care is taken to ensure that appointed suppliers remain the best all-round partner, with commodities and services being regularly market tested to ensure they provide value to Blue Care and our clients.
