SchoolSavers is a new concept for Schools and Colleges to purchase the majority of their consumable items On-line from a single source using the latest Internet e-Commerce based technology. The idea for SchoolSavers was born as a result of extensive research on the purchasing patterns of consumable items at a number of schools and the considerable effort involved in sourcing and purchasing these products at each school.

Many schools view their operations as a business, with a limited source of funds available to them through annual school fees. Additional capital is usually generated through fundraising events and other activities to meet any shortfall. Our research has shown that many schools administrators spend a considerable amount of time sourcing products and negotiating with suppliers, when purchasing computer consumables, photocopy paper, general stationery, sports equipment etc. and other commodities. Due to the diverse range of products that they buy and the small quantities involved, it is difficult for them to negotiate better prices and terms for purchases that they make on behalf of their school. This is where the SchoolSavers concept can significantly assist in reducing the annual administration and purchasing costs at each school.

Using the Internet, SchoolSavers can allow each school to purchase the products that they require and have them delivered at designated agreed times. SchoolSavers can aggregate the orders received through the system from the different schools, enabling us to negotiate better prices with suppliers on bulk purchases to our distribution centre. This will result in SchoolSavers being able to offer better prices on a comprehensive range of products (currently over 8000!) to schools on many consumable items, whilst significantly reducing the school’s administrational paperwork, as a result of purchasing from a single source.

SchoolSavers is a comprehensive cost-effective easy-to-use On-line Ordering and Administration solution for schools to purchase a diverse range of regular commonly used products from a single source. Existing users of the system will continue to benefit as more schools sign up to use the system. SchoolSavers will continue to add new products to our catalogues offering an even wider range to our valued clients. Our approach is significantly different to other B2B On-line Ordering solutions being offered to schools, in that SchoolSavers is a One-Stop-Shop that supplies every product on our website directly to schools, with a single delivery and invoice from us. This translates into significantly less time in the ordering process, a single delivery for each complete order and a single invoice from us, covering a diverse range of products. Our clients will be able to see alternative lower cost comparable products as well as the product that they were looking for, giving them more choice and savings when looking for consumable products.

Contact us today for a jargon-free assessment as to why we believe SchoolSavers can reduce costs at your school and a demonstration of how the system works. Internet access is all that’s required and you can try it out free for a no obligation trial period before deciding to continue using the system. We believe you will be glad that you did!
