Havering Education Services (HES) established a Brokerage Service in 2013 as a dedicated collaborative procurement support mechanism for schools and settings, which enables them to access a wide range of suppliers of goods and services that have been selected through a compliant procurement route and who demonstrably deliver value for money and high-quality products and services to schools and settings. The Brokerage Service has over the years developed to encompass a wide range of competitive multi-supplier procurement frameworks with a cumulative total transaction value to date of circa £10m. Starting in 2022, under a partnership model, Hornchurch Academy Trust, a Multi Academy Trust based in Havering assumed the role of ‘Contracting Authority’ under which umbrella the HES brokerage frameworks will be managed, and procurement activities conducted.This requirement is for a new multi supplier framework agreement for the provision of educational supplies.
