Procurement
As a public sector body we have a duty to
consider economy, efficiency and effectiveness in everything we
buy. We must also adhere to government and EU procurement
regulations which require that we are open, fair and transparent
about how we buy things and with other policies such as
environmental sustainability and equality and diversity. Wherever
possible we work collaboratively with other public bodies,
particularly with our sponsors the Department
for Education (DfE) and with the Office of Government
Commerce (OGC), part of the Cabinet Office. The majority of our
procurement requirements are channelled through pan-government
agreements set up by the OGC. Any requirements which are not
covered by existing agreements will go through a competitive
process with tenders in excess of £10,000 being shown in the
‘tenders’ section of this website.
