The new Catalist framework is designed to unify the framework agreements under one identifiable and recognisable brand name. Catalist incorporates older framework agreements including GCat and S-Cat until they expire and a series of new framework agreements which have been developed to offer customers a broad range of goods and services aligned to their particular needs.

The Catalist framework has been designed to simplify government procurement by giving public sector bodies access to accredited suppliers therefore reducing the amount of time and resources required during the procurement process.

OGCbuying.solutions is the trading arm of the Office of Government Commerce (OGC), which is itself an office of HM Treasury. OGCbuying.solutions, launched in April 2001, provides public sector procurement professionals with a route to the products and services they need to maximise procurement efficiency and value for money. Its contracts and framework agreements offer substantial savings through significant buying power, economies of scale and strategic partnerships.

Rigorous tendering and evaluation processes ensure that products and services are checked for quality, price competitiveness, fitness for purpose and compliance with statutory requirements. These products and services are available through OGCbuying.solutions Catalist framework agreements and Managed Service
