APP (Annual Procurement Plan)
An Annual Procurement Plan (APP) is a strategic document that outlines an organization’s objectives and strategies for procurement over a one-year period. It provides a framework for evaluating each potential purchase, enabling stakeholders to assess important factors such as timeliness, cost, quality and sustainability. The APP serves as a useful tool to ensure the organization obtains goods and services in a timely and efficient manner, while meeting all legal and ethical requirements.
