Description

The Cirrus Consortium (The Consortium) is a procurement consortium that currently consists of in excess of 90 members including Registered Providers of Social Housing, Local Authorities, ALMOs and NHS Trusts. Members are based across England, Wales and Scotland, with additional organisations joining on a regular basis. As contracting authorities access the frameworks available from The Consortium, they are allowed membership to The Consortium, giving them active input into the Central Purchasing Body.

The Consortium is seeking bids from service providers to participate in an agency labour & recruitment services framework.

The framework is available for use by all contracting authorities including, but not limited to; Local Authorities, Registered Providers of Social Housing, Police & Emergency Services, NHS Trusts, Schools & Universities and Registered Charities.

The Consortium is managed on behalf of the membership by Cirrus Purchasing Ltd, a specialist purchasing and supply consultancy supporting the social housing, public and private sectors.
