Public sector procurement relies heavily on frameworkagreements as a streamlined purchasing tool for goods and services. These agreements take on even greater importance under the Procurement Act 2023, with greater emphasis on transparency, competition and sustainability. What Are FrameworkAgreements?
I am delighted to present to How to Crack a Nut readers an outline of my recently published book FrameworkAgreements, Supplier Lists and Other Public Procurement Tools: Purchasing Uncertain or Indefinite Requirements (Hart Publishing, 2023).
We are delighted to announce the establishment of a new National FrameworkAgreement for the supply of Web Based and Proprietary Devices. The framework provides Scottish public sector bodies with access to Chromebook, Windows SE, Apple, Microsoft, Thin Client and Open Source Tablet Devices.
Framework Public Bodies will be notified in advance of the effective date of any new pricing and a new Lyreco catalogue will be uploaded in due course. The relet action is well underway and the new arrangement will form part of Scotland Excel’s cluster call-off from the CCS Framework.
It outlines pricing, service quality and other key details. Call-Off Contract A call-off contract is used when an organisation purchases goods or services from a frameworkagreement. D-F Dynamic Purchasing System( DPS) It is an online marketplace where one can buy goods or services from pre-approved suppliers.
We are delighted to announce the establishment of a new National FrameworkAgreement for the supply of Desktop Client Devices. The framework provides desktops, monitors, fixed workstations and accessories. The framework is a single-supplier agreement with HP Inc.

Without competitive bidding, prices go up, and the quality of goods and services languishes. One of the most pressing issues is the over-reliance on frameworkagreements by central government departments. Robust competition in public procurement can bring these promising outcomes.
The key aim of our own supported businesses Dynamic Purchase System is to provide Scottish public sector and third sector bodies with a clear path to purchase goods and services from supported businesses. The framework is used across the Scottish public sector, generating impressive savings of £7.5
Solution: An open procurement approach, such as agile procurement methodologies and flexible frameworkagreements, facilitates quicker decision-making and increases adaptability to emerging technologies. There is research to show that every additional tenderer leads to a price reduction.
