Asked by Mike WoodConservativeCabinet OfficeTabled Answered 10 February 2026UIN 110021

The question

To ask the Minister for the Cabinet Office, what role the Crown Commercial Service (CCS) has in monitoring Bloom Procurement Services Ltd’s compliance with the NEPRO3 framework; and whether CCS is required to audit the fees and margins applied by Procurement Services Ltd on behalf of client departments.

Answered by Chris Ward

The NEPRO3 framework is not managed or administered by the Crown Commercial Service (CCS).

CCS does not monitor the compliance of Bloom Procurement Services Ltd with the NEPRO3 framework, and it does not have a role in auditing any fees or margins that may be applied by Bloom Procurement Services Ltd to departments.
