According to the Project Management Institute (2013), plan procurement management is the process of documenting project procurement decisions, specifying the approach, and identifying potential sellers.

It also proposed new systems to enhance patient care, an emphasis upon health and wellbeing rather than illness and the increased devolution of decision making to local organisations. The need for more partnerships and joint working arrangements between Primary Care Trust’s, Local Authorities, independent and voluntary sector organisations, was also emphasised.
