About
the LUPC:
Becoming
a LUPC Member
Introduction
The LUPC (London Universities Purchasing Consortium) is a
non-profit making body that arranges contracts between a wide
range of supply companies and its member institutions. We
are funded by our members through subscriptions, which are
based on how much each institution spends per annum. Due to
the massive savings we can achieve by tendering agreements
on behalf of our members, the subscription fee is a very small
investment for a high return.
Membership Benefits
Once a member, the institution has full access to all the
agreements LUPC has arranged, as well as multi-regional and
national agreements that we are participating in, arranged
by other consortia across the UK. A list of our current
agreements is available. We also offer a range of added
value services such as procurement advice, provision of supplier
spend data, training, benchmarking and focus groups.
