Coverage: 11 active published awards; 6 bid reports (which may be per lot). Supplier values exclude multi-supplier awards, frameworks and DPS, and use GBP only. They are published award values, not payments. Published-to-award variance compares single-lot, single-award, single-supplier GBP procedures with explicitly non-framework/non-DPS status; increases remain in the average. Unpublished data stays unknown. Awarded suppliers are winners, not all bidders.

What is being bought
CPC will be tendering for suppliers who can provide electronic/cashless payment solutions to members, primarily based in the education sector, but also the wider public sector via Crescent Services Limited.
The current framework agreement can be viewed at:
https://www.thecpc.ac.uk/services/frameworks/cashless-payment-solutions
The current scope is as follows and is likely to remain broadly the same:
Contactless payment systems remove the need to handle cash at the point of sale, improving school epos systems and the customer and user experience, reducing queues, speeding up service, creating value for money for the customer/user, whilst providing full reporting functionality, across a variety of solutions to meet users' diverse needs.
Cashless payment systems can be used in a variety of situations in education establishments such as catering operations, retail (bookshops, clothing & school uniforms, stationery), trips & accommodation, tuition fees, gym/sports club memberships, conference centres & event management, libraries, personal lockers, car parking & barrier systems and much more.
Cashless payment solutions available through this framework can include card machines terminals (countertop, portable or mobile), point of sale terminals, self-service terminals, customer payment kiosks, receipt printers, scanners, biometric readers, cash drawers, vending interface, smart card readers and visitor management systems. Supply, installation, servicing and maintenance.
The current agreement expires on 15/05/2026.
