Purchasing
We have partnered up with the Buying Support Agency (BSA), a specialist in best practice procurement and purchasing, to save you up to 35% across a range of goods and services.
 
The BSA has developed the BSA Consortium – a buying group – to provide a purchasing support service for small and medium-sized businesses. It uses economies of scale and its knowledge of purchasing best practice to meet the purchasing needs of smaller businesses – just like yours.
 
This service is available to all of the FPB's members.

    What our members say
     
    "Joining the BSA Consortium has given us a 24% saving on our existing stationery and office supplies spend. This is something we would never have achieved on our own, as our buying power was limited.

    We have been very happy with the responsiveness and service quality of the stationery supplier since the switch, and would recommend the service to others. We also like the fact that the BSA Consortium is keeping watch over the service levels to make sure that the supplier doesn't get complacent."
