Event round-up: CCS Technology Products & Associated Services 2 market engagement event

On Wednesday 28 September, techUK hosted the Crown Commercial Service (CCS) for a further pre-market engagement session for the next iteration of the flagship agreement Technology Products and Associated Services (TePAS 2).

During the event, CCS unveiled the proposed new agreement to suppliers, taking a closer look at the scope and structure of the agreement, ways to sell, pricing models, catalogue and social value; exploring the key areas of change; and explaining how market feedback has shaped the agreement so far.

This session was interactive, with CCS posing a series of questions to attendees as the team were keen to get suppliers' feedback on the proposal so far. Attendees also had an opportunity to ask the CCS team questions. 

The slides from the session (including the feedback gathered) can be found here:
