Frameworks, including the Crown Commercial Service, supply many everyday goods and services.

Suppliers can register for these systems through the Panacea Procurement Portal at any time.

Procurement spend from central entities makes up 66% of overall UK public spend.

Over the past 5 years, most of the Forestry Commission's contract awards have been in agricultural and horticultural services, construction work and business services.
