Notice Description
This is an information gathering exercise named Preliminary Market Engagement. The purpose of this exercise is to gather information from suppliers who provide Paint and decorating supplies, outlined within the document available on Multiquote, to assist in forming the framework to meet the members requirement.

Any resulting framework from this exercise will be available to CPC Members (https://www.thecpc.ac.uk/members/regions.php) and all CPC future members (https://www.gov.uk/guidance/get-information-about-schools). This framework will also be open to NWUPC (www.nwupc.ac.uk/members/) and NEUPC (www.neupc.ac.uk/join/members) Local Authorities may also wish to use the resulting framework when procuring on behalf of Educational Establishments. The framework will also be available to the Wider Public Sector https://www.thecpc.ac.uk/suppliers/eligible-public-sector-bodies.php) via Crescent Service
