The Institute for Collaborative Working's continuing role is to help organisations, large and small, in both the public and private sectors, to build and develop effective competitive business relationships based upon a collaborative approach.

The Institute (formerly called Partnership Sourcing Limited - PSL) was established in 1990 as a joint initiative between the Department of Trade and Industry (DTI) now BIS (Department for Business, Innovation and Skills) and the CBI (Confederation of British Industry).
