In February this year, the Government Procurement Act 2023 began a new chapter in public sector procurement—making the entire process more transparent, efficient, and accessible. For schools and multi-academy trusts (MATs), this was not just legislative change—it’s a real opportunity to simplify purchasing, unlock greater value, and collaborate with education-focused partners like us at Cleverbox.
Cleverbox specialise exclusively in the education sector. We craft tailored digital and print branding solutions that support school engagement, compliance, and long-term growth. And with the new procurement framework now in place, it’s easier than ever for schools and trusts to engage directly with us, to understand their needs inside and out.
Why now is the time to work with Cleverbox
With the Procurement Act now in force, the landscape is shifting in favour of flexible, specialist companies like us. Schools can now partner with Cleverbox based not just on cost, but on quality, impact, and relevance to education. By choosing an expert education provider, schools gain more than a service—they gain a strategic partner and an invaluable ongoing relationship.
- Direct, simplified procurement – No unnecessary delays in securing digital services.
- Built specifically for schools – Bespoke school websites, signage, print and branding designed for education.
- Value beyond price – Based on impact, value added and service.
- Ongoing support, not one-off projects – A valuable partnership for a variety of marketing services.
How Cleverbox is aligned with the new framework.
Cleverbox already operates in line with the core principles of the Procurement Act: transparency, value, flexibility, and social impact. For too long, public sector contracts have prioritised low-cost over high-quality solutions. The new act changes this by focusing on real value, allowing schools to choose suppliers based on the wider impact they bring.
We’re proud to deliver:
- Transparent pricing with no hidden fees.
- Clear ROI, with proven improvements in school communication and visibility.
- Trusted expertise, backed by endorsements across the education sector.
- Ongoing support guarantee – We’re proud to offer expert guidance and unlimited web support, allowing you to focus on your core responsibilities
By working with us, schools benefit from a team that’s not only ready for this new procurement era—but that has been aligned with it from the start.
