BASE

What can suppliers expect from BASE at the Meet the Buyer 2023 event on 17 May?

BASE aim to support, promote and develop the principles and provision of supported employment. It works to establish collective action on national issues that cannot be addressed by individual agencies and members alone.

BASE is currently working with procurement officials in Scotland to create framework agreements. Contracting authorities can now reserve a lot or category within a framework for supported factories and businesses to compete for.

Supported businesses should stop by the exhibition stand to find out how BASE can help your business grow and the opportunities available to your business.

BASE also welcomes buyers to learn more about working with supported businesses, provide sustainable employment, and create community benefits.

For more information, please visit the BASE website.
