Who Can Use ESPO
Whilst initially for use by local authorities served by ESPO – being a Central Purchasing Body as defined by the Public Contracts Regulations 2015, the Framework may also be open for use by any “public body” including:
- Central government agencies and ministries
- NHS and emergency (blue light) services

Origin Fitness's services can now be accessed as part of this framework which makes the procuring services process more streamlined and effective for public sector organisations. This means a full procurement process does not need to be run saving time and making the process more efficient.

We are thrilled to now be able to offer our services to a range of public sector organisations across the bespoke projects and the supply of fitness equipment frameworks."
