DfE urges schools to take advantage of procurement frameworks
The Department for Education (DfE) has urged schools to take advantage of procurement frameworks that can help them to save money on their energy, ICT equipment and printers and photocopiers.
Crown Commercial Service procurement frameworks are special deals negotiated by the government that make it easier for public organisations to access approved products and services.
The DfE claims that schools could save up to 10 per cent on energy and over 40 per cent for printers and photocopiers.
