Procurement of a new MFD contract
Schools’ Buying Club helped E21C procure a new MFD contract for its 9 academies. The team managed a bespoke procurement process from start to finish, helping the Trust find the best provision possible, both in terms of quality and value for money. The new centralised contract can now be managed at Trust level and will deliver a significant saving of 620k over 4 years. Additional benefits include transparent print costs, savings on environmentally friendly devices and all licenses finishing at the same time.
‘Thanks to SBC we will be paying a third of our original contract and will make a big step towards achieving our sustainability goals. The SBC team was extremely helpful and efficient throughout the process, we can’t recommend their service enough.’ Rob Carling, Director of Finance.
