The framework offers drivers for value for money by enabling mini-competition

1. Using this framework supports our Giving Back initiative. Our charity's focus is on SEND, wellbeing and absenteeism

To call off from this Framework you must run a mini competition. 

However, should a member have a need to direct award based on mitigating factors such as lack of time to run a competition, that Member must do a due diligence exercise to mitigate risk of challenge.

 Please note, Direct Award on ranked suppliers is not available on this Framework. No suppliers have been ranked in the original Framework tender process 

The CPC Quote Tool makes it easy to perform and manage a further competition exercise on this Framework. It's free to use for all our members and offers quick, compliant access to all suppliers on purchases that fall below £214,904.00
