Published requirement description

YPO are considering establishing a framework for Business Services within the Education Sector, this includes all schools/academy/multi-academy trusts (MATs) across the UK and will be a nationwide framework. The aim of this framework is to provide a compliant solution to support the Education Sector focussing on Primary, Secondary and Higher Education to meet their back-office functions and requirements supported through advice based services with supporting platforms where required.
