Some members may also use these to contract with a supplier for all of their recruitment requirements. CPC has included a national lot for those large college groups and MATs where they may have sites in more than one region.
Lot 14 – Neutral Vendor
This Lot is for the provision of services including but not limited to a Neutral Vendor model. The appointed neutral vendor supplier will manage the recruitment processes for the CPC member, using a tiered supplier model. The neutral vendor supplier will not provide their own staff to fill the requirements and filter the requirement through the tiers.
Lot 15 – Managed Service
Lot 16 – Education Vendor Management System (VMS)
This Lot is the for the provision of digital goods and services including but not limited to a vendor management system. The provided VMS software will integrate with CPC members internal systems where they can manage their own recruitment and agencies. This is an option for members who do not want a neutral vendor or managed service but wish to use the systems in place and manage their own recruitment processes. The VMS provider will not provide any staff to CPC members.
If staff absence or sickness is increasing your costs towards temporary staffing, it may be time to consider taking out an absence protection policy to give you budget certainty. CPC’s Staff Absence Protection and Reimbursement framework allows members to acquire cover for pre-existing medical conditions, ongoing, and future absences for a broad range of causes. Providers may also be able to offer rehabilitation and wellbeing support services as part of their cover to help your staff return to – or stay in – work.
