ProClass
ProClass is the procurement classification for English local government. It was launched in 2006 and has now been adopted by eight of the nine Regional Centres of Excellence (RCES), now Regional Improvement and Efficiency Partnerships (RIEPS).
ProClass is owned by local government and from October 2007 its management and maintenance has been passed to Coding International Ltd. More information about Proclass can be found on its dedicated web site.
