Framework Specific User Guide 

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

Direct Award – where the requirement is of low value, urgent or a one-off need, institutions may seek to award to a single supplier for their requirement. This process is quick and easy, and members may choose to award based on the average discount off list price, the scores awarded at the time of framework tender or based on price comparison using the price lists available on suppliers’ web pages. Members should view the User Guide for full details of how these mechanisms work.

Mini-competition – institutions with higher value requirements, service needs or who are seeking a longer-term, mutually beneficial relationship, may seek to conduct a mini-competition to appoint a supplier for a formal contract over a number of years. Please see the User Guide for further details of how this process may be conducted. 

Important Procurement Act 2023 requirement

It is very important for CPC members to register on the new Find a Tender Service to create your organisation’s unique procurement identifier, known as an API Key. You then need to add the API Key to your profile on our MultiQuote eSender portal to run compliant mini competitions for our frameworks. It is a requirement under Procurement Act 2023 that relevant notices are published to the Find a Tender Service and MultiQuote can only publish your notices if you have added your API Key. See our Find a tender service registration web page for a step-by-step guide on how to register.
