Schools we’ve partnered with
How it Works
We’ll work closely with your school’s stakeholders to understand their needs, covering anything from groundskeeping and cleaning through to IT systems and supplies.
It’s our job to keep your students at front of mind throughout the process, ensuring that the services/products we procure are tailored to your unique needs as an organisation, and the unique needs of the young people in your care.
Why Partner with Procure?
As a headteacher or SBM, managing tenders is the last thing you need to be doing. Let us handle it all for you.
Enjoy Peace of Mind
We’ve worked in school procurement for years, meaning we can take everything away from you, helping you rest a little easier at night.
Make a Difference
Whether it’s groundskeeping, IT or supplies, we ensure that your supplier keeps your school(s) immaculate, fully equipped and running as they should do.
Invest in You
We cut costs, not quality. We help our partners to reinvest in initiatives and schemes that matter to their communities and truly make a difference.
Save Staff Time
Your staff have a lot to do. By handling the entire facilities management tendering process, we have saved schools 1000’s of hours so you can spend more time focusing on your students.
Preparing Your Tender
We understand that no two schools are the same. Facilities management needs can differ significantly; it’s our job to identify your unique requirements as a school or trust, before creating a tender that reflects your values and needs.
Once we understand your requirements, we’ll draft detailed tender documents (request for proposal – (RFP), invitation to tender – (ITT), etc.) that outline specifications, evaluation criteria, timelines and terms and conditions.
From there, it’s time for action
Bringing Your Tender to Life
During any tender, we engage closely with potential suppliers, leveraging our vast network and existing relationships to get you the best possible deal. Our process includes:
- Supplier Engagement
- Bid Evaluation
- Negotiation & Clarification
- Contract Award & Finalisation
