Apogee Corporation are pleased to announce their successful bid to become an accredited supplier of the Charities Buying Group framework agreement (CBG).

Under this framework, Apogee will offer Managed Print Services (MPS), IT Services, and Outsourced Document Services (ODS) to deliver value and innovation to charities and other not-for-profit organisations.

These services include, but are not limited to: multifunctional devices and printers, print management software, audio-visual supplies and services, document storage & distribution, Electronic Document Management Systems (EDMS), external print, hybrid mail, mail management services, and scanning and archiving services.

The main purpose of the Charities Buying Group is to reduce expenditure for not-for-profit organisations; therefore helping them to use their money to more effectively benefit their stated missions and objectives.

Formed in 2002 after reviewing how little support charities receive to solve purchasing issues – particularly smaller charities - the CBG use their collective buying power to create buying agreements that reduce cost, while maximising value. By 2004, they were commended in Parliament for helping their first 255 members achieve savings of over 1 million pounds in their first year.

As an accredited supplier for the CBG and an independent subsidiary of HP Inc., Apogee will provide industry-leading solutions to help charities in their digital transformation journey – drawing from an extensive portfolio of products, applications and services.

Apogee already work with a wide range of charities including Stonewall, Barnardos, Change Grow Live, Milestones Trust, and Northern Ireland Hospice, among others.

“This bid represents a fantastic opportunity for charities to transform how they manage, secure, print and collaborate their data,” says Gary Day, Apogee’s Director of Public Sector Sales.

 “These services are designed to boost value while minimising expenditure of resource, which, nowadays, is something that not-for-profits desperately need. We’re excited to see how our expertise and growing portfolio of services can shape the future of this industry in coming years.”
