Who Benefits from Our Framework Consultancy?
We help UK suppliers that want to win places on Crown Commercial Service (CCS) frameworks and turn that place into real call-off opportunities. If you are bidding for a CCS framework for the first time, reapplying after a previous attempt, or need extra support to hit a deadline, we’ll help you submit a clear, compliant and well-scoring application.
SMEs Bidding for a CCS Framework for the First Time
If CCS feels hard to navigate, we’ll keep it simple. We help you choose the right CCS framework and lots, confirm what you need for eligibility, and build answers that match the scoring and the evidence CCS evaluators expect.
Suppliers Reapplying or Improving a Previous Submission
If you have been unsuccessful before, we will review what happened and tighten the areas that usually cost marks. That includes your evidence, methodology, policies, social value and how you prove you meet the lot requirements, not just saying you do.
Established Businesses That Need Extra Capacity
If you already bid for CCS work but need more hands, we can plug in quickly. We support with writing, review, compliance checks and final submission support, so your bid is consistent and ready to submit on time.
Sectors We Commonly Support on CCS
We regularly support suppliers bidding into CCS across construction and infrastructure, IT and digital, professional services and estates-related services. Our team has supported CCS framework submissions for over 15 years, so we know the standards and the common pitfalls that can cost marks. We work on CCS framework bids every month for clients across the UK. If you want to talk it through, email hello@thorntonandlowe.com or call 01204 238046.
