  3. What is aggregated procurement and why do it? • By buying together we can deliver three main benefits to our community: 1. Volume discounts/economy of scale – hopefully offered as something of value! 2. Especially for small NRENs – access to markets previously accessed via resellers 3. Efficiency – average OJEU costs €60k

How can it be done? • Assuming we are considering bodies bound by the EC Procurement Directive (and their National Laws incorporating this) for values over threshold there are 2 main approaches: • 2. Centralised Purchasing bodies – framework contracts • 1. In-house award – “Teckal” Scope, variation, duration, beneficiaries, numbers, agreement award Validation criteria: Control, 90% of activities, no private participation
