About the buyer

A procurement pipeline lists larger contracts expected over the next five years. Frameworks and dynamic purchasing systems cover network equipment, cloud services and research systems.

Procurement spend from central entities makes up 66% of overall UK public spend.
Over the past 5 years, most of Jisc's contract awards have been in education and training, IT services and software and information systems.
