The Framework's enables Public Sector organisations to avoid long, costly, compulsory, competitive tender processes by choosing a supplier. This means that FP can offer:

• Money and time savings – takes away the slow and costly compulsory competitive tendering process.

• Streamlined Procurement - you will not need advertising notices, tendering or lengthy negotiations.

• Peace of mind that our service solutions have been pre-assessed for quality and value.

• Fully compliant with EU and UK procurement rules and regulations.

In addition, we are registered to over 150 portals, in which you can access framework pricing. For more info please contact Sofia Furlonger on 01279 603080
