About the Education Professional Services Open Framework This Open framework has been awarded as the result of a fully regulated, above public procurement threshold tender exercise. The contracting authority for this framework is the Crescent Purchasing Consortium. The agreement started on 02/02/2026 and the Open Framework will run until 2034, as allowed under the Procurement Act 2023. The Open Framework will be opened after either the first 24 or 36 months, as included within the original tender ITT. The frequency of opening will be dependent upon the success of the first year. The Open Framework is a new service offering to CPC Members; there has been no prior framework in place for these services.
