Public Sector Procurement
Any Public Body can appoint Sanderson Weatherall directly without the need for entering the procurement process as we are registered suppliers on two major frameworks, which can also be used to appoint us through an OJEU compliant process.
The first of these is the Crown Commercial Services National Lot 1 RM3816 Estates Professional Services Framework which is available for use by any public body or registered charity within the UK.
The second is the Homes England Property Professional Services Framework which is also available for any public body to use in England.
Both frameworks offer competitive rates and a framework which has been selected based upon strict quality and pricing criteria and offer a quick and practical route to market for our public sector clients.
