As a regional collaboration of police forces we have been partnered with Insight since September 2019. During that time we have built an excellent working relationship built around being mutually successful. Through creating this partnership with Insight we have been able to change the ways of working both in a procurement perspective and how the technical teams operate. The obvious benefits achieved are in the form of savings to our forces and Insight have been very proactive in working with vendors to create bid pricing on behalf of all forces. They have also negotiated significant cost reductions on specific projects with key vendors and have offered numerous added value services such as stockholding facilities in their secure warehouse and asset tagging services.
Another key benefit has been the ability to allow local P2P teams to establish their own catalogues within the Insight e-Purchasing portal and manage their own quote generation locally. This has helped to consolidate the product range and make the process less resource intensive. All in all it has been an extremely positive relationship to date and where issues have arisen they have been promptly dealt with. David Holbrook MCIPS
