We have listened to feedback on the previous electronic catalogue and have introduced a new, user-friendly format that will benefit all users.
What’s changed?
- Customers now have full access to a comprehensive list of contracts available to schools
- To make it easier to understand our contracts we have introduced a range of images to provide a clearer view of what you are looking to buy
- New search facilities to ease navigation and allow you to find the product or service you need
What are the benefits?
- The contracts allow schools to access the benefit of Durham County Council’s buying power, so you can enjoy lower pricing and a wider range of prequalified suppliers that have all been vetted
- For your peace of mind, all of our suppliers are checked for compliance, including insurance, sustainability and social value for the community
- Compliantly procured with terms and conditions specifically designed to protect our customers
- A range of contracts to suit your needs, many designed for the education market
