Procurement is…
• Expensive
• Timely
• Stressful
And we are known for winning 9 out of 10 tenders we apply for. In fact, in the second half of 2014, CBS won all 12 tenders we applied for.
So, if you’re looking for a new DBS background screening provider there’s no need to go to procurement and put your contract out to tender. Save time and money by coming straight to us here at CBS. Find out how we can help here.
Public Procurement Law
Public procurement law is in place to regulate the purchasing of services, goods or work within and for the public sector. It is enforced to ensure free movement of goods and services, as well as the prevention of bias.
This applies to organisations that are contracting authorities, such as local authorities, educational establishments and government. However, although not required by law to put contracts out to tender, some firms still choose to do so. If you are one of these firms, you may like to learn why we think this is a waste of your time and money.
Why Skip the Procurement Process?
Let’s face it, procurement and putting contracts out to tender can take a lot of time and money. By cutting out this stage and coming straight to CBS you will be freeing up your staff to spend time on other important activities and be providing yourself with a higher cashflow.
Going direct will also make finding a background screening provider much easier and stress-free. There’s no need to read through dozens of complicated documents; you can rest assured you are getting a great service for a fair price at CBS.
You may find cheaper bids elsewhere if you go to procurement, but low costs don’t necessarily mean the best deal. You pay for what you get, so cheap quotes will usually mean low quality work that will end up costing you more in the long run. We’re one of Britain’s most popular DBS check and background screening services, so your money is safe invested in our services.
