About Crescent Purchasing Consortium
CPC is the only Purchasing Consortium exclusively operating for institutions working in the FE sector. Our main purpose is to produce purchasing frameworks compliant with the UK Public Contracts Regulations. CPC frameworks cover a wide variety of products and services and our aim is to continue to develop this portfolio in line with our members' needs. We harness the collective spending power of our members to drive down costs from our suppliers, meaning that we can deliver savings that couldn't be obtained through tenders done by individual institutions. The CPC team is made up of experienced and dedicated procurement experts who are able to offer support and guidance. General advice can also be sought from our Helpdesk and our Contracting team can assist with more technical queries. We can also offer onsite support through our in-field representatives in certain areas of the UK.
