Thank you to all those CPC members who provided feedback for our recent ICT Hardware contract review meetings, as discussed last month.
Continuing this trend, CPC are now in the process of scheduling contract review meetings for the ICT Networking and Storage Solutions framework.
These contract review meetings will take place during the first half of December.
As part of the process, we are again seeking feedback and this can include positive experiences, as we are looking to encourage our framework suppliers.
The area of ICT Networking is currently challenging, with the scarcity of key networking components making matters trickier for both suppliers and members.
To illustrate this, some specific manufacturers have lead times of up to 12 months.
Meanwhile, contract review is an essential part of the contract management process.
At CPC, we like to encourage and work with our suppliers, to help them remain engaged and to respond to your requirements more promptly and successfully.
For members unfamiliar with CPC’s ICT Networking and Storage Solutions framework, this framework offers a compliant route to market and is specifically designed for the education sector, while divided into three distinguishable lots:
On Premise Solutions
Cloud & Hybrid Cloud Solutions
Consultancy Services
A list of the ICT Networking framework suppliers can be found via the following link:
ICT Networking and Storage Solutions - Crescent Purchasing Consortium (CPC)
We ask that all feedback on the ICT Networking framework be sent to the Category Manager, Jane Edwards, via [email protected] by 5th December.
