CIPS Accredited

Probrand meets the CIPS Standard of Excellence in Procurement Policies and Procedures

Probrand is one of an elite group of organisations to have achieved an accreditation from the Chartered Institute of Purchasing & Supply (CIPS) as an acknowledgement of its ability to provide good practice in procurement. CIPS is an international organisation, based in the UK, serving the purchasing and supply profession.

As a privileged supplier to the public sector through the Buying Solutions framework and the Government Gateway Alliance Program, Probrand has cemented its position as the default and complete computer company for IT buyers in the private and public sectors. The CIPS accreditation manifests itself in www.theitindex.co.uk which brings together all of the elements of good practice online in one streamlined end-to-end offering. It builds in all the necessary controls that would be expected of a good practice procurement environment.

Probrand's www.theitindex.co.uk daily updates a catalogue of over half a million line items from over 2000 suppliers by best price and availability. For IT buyers this means they can see the best priced product available in the shortest possible time eliminating the lengthy process of 'bartering' with suppliers. It offers a structured buying environment with centralised management functionality improving spend visibility to help reduce maverick spend. On average it saves 15% on budgets and a working week in time that is often better spent on more strategic tasks.

Probrand delivers what CIPS calls the immovable pillars of "good practice". These are auditability, version control, archiving, reporting plus critical elements of the procurement workflow that include approvals, signoff, contracts and procedure, amongst others. Probrand delivers all of this through fully automated systems and has succeeded where many have failed.
