Central Arrangements

It is Government policy that public bodies, where possible, should make use of all central arrangements (Circular 16/2013).

The benefits arising from these frameworks include cash savings; administrative savings from reduced duplication of tendering; greater purchasing expertise; improved consistency; enhanced service levels and legal certainty.

Central Arrangements can be established by way of a Framework Agreement or a Dynamic Purchase System (DPS).
